This is a regression occurring due to bug 1207429. When used with libav 11.2 ; we get a decoding error for either VP8 or VP9 codec. Works fine with ffmpeg that ships with ubuntu 15.04 (libavcodec-ffmpeg)
Recent libav do not require a codec parser to decode VP9.

Comment on attachment 8666540 [details] [diff] [review] Fix VP9 decoding with recent version of libav. Approval Request Comment [Feature/regressing bug #]:1197319, this is making FFmpeg code robust [User impact if declined]: WeBM playback will fail if LibAV is installed instead of FFmpeg (which is the default on most linux distribution) [Describe test coverage new/current, TreeHerder]: In central for a few weeks [Risks and why]: Low, just testing that a particular API is supported and not just error [String/UUID change made/needed]: None
