H.265 doesn't seem to be widely supported at the moment:

Patents appear to be an issue that needs to be solved (or worked around) before it could be implemented in Firefox:

As you may know, Firefox doesn't natively support H.264 and instead uses third party libraries such as FFmpeg (on Linux) or Media Foundation (on Windows 7-10). I imagine there will be a similar strategy for H.265 if it is ever supported "in tab".
