Since there is a project https://github.com/StaZhu/enable-chromium-hevc-hardware-decoding use OS api to support HEVC on Win/macOS, can firefox use the same method?

The request is not for Mozilla to provide HEVC video decoding in Firefox, which would require Mozilla to license HEVC. The request is to support (pass through) HEVC when the device supports it, as Safari and Chrome do. The device handles the video decoding, and as such, the device OEM is responsible for licensing all required HEVC patents. Device OEMs have been licensing and supporting HEVC for many years. As of 2018 the majority of mobile devices supported HEVC decoding... https://www.scientiamobile.com/growing-support-of-hevc-or-h-265-video-on-mobile-devices/.

I agree with this.
My question is if we should create a new ticket? This ticket is closed and therefore probably hardly noticed.

This is true. On the other hand developers often use filtered lists to get an overview of "TODO" tickets. Closed projects are usually filtered out.
