For me html5 videos (YouTube) in Firefox 50.1.0 on openSUSE Tumbleweed and Leap 42.2 work, without gstreamer-0_10.

Since quite some versions (at least 47) there is no GStreamer support in Firefox releases anymore. So it's unlikely that this is related.
And even before Firefox already used GStreamer version 1 for all distribution versions since 13.2.

Current ESR @mozilla.org (13 Dec.) is 45.6; @Mozilla BS repo 45.4.

Last Youtube I tried in 53.0a1 on 42.1 plays soundless, won't play at all in 45.6 or SeaMonkey 2.46 (both gtk2; both produce '...try restarting your device' message): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0pOndzESnY
It does work in mozilla.org's 50.1, but in 42.2 or TW it suffers from gtk3 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269274
Flash is not and will not be installed. # rpm -qa | grep libgstreame libgstreamer-0_10-0-0.10.36-22.3.x86_64 libgstreamer-1_0-0-1.10.2-79.1.x86_64

Thanks for the hints Wolfgang and the others.
I can confirm that removing and adding gstreamer 010 on Tumbleweed and working / non-working youtube was just a coincidense. I tried to repoduce the error with / without gstreamer 010 and it needs several youtube videos to open to occur. If I close and restart firefox the same video might play fine. So it is random and has nothing to do with my original gstreamer-assumption. It all started some days ago.
I tested on 2 systems, both current Tumbleweed x64, plasma5, packman, firefox 50.1.0. - amd cpu fx8350 + pontostroy mesa git repo with amdgpu fury x driver - amd apu 7600 + stock radeon oss drivers.
So this might be a firefox / ffmpeg / packman bug. Can we narrow it down a little bit more so that we can open a bug at the right project?
