Details

As detailed in bug 837236 comment 20, hardware decoding support has been disabled for the browser <video> element. We need to figure out how to safely reenable hardware decoding support for the browser's <video> element to enable Web video.

This is what bug 803471 solves if I'm not mistaken.

So what's left to be implemented here then?
Hardware decoding has been disabled as per bug 837236. We need to implement a safe way to reenable it.
See bug 803471 comment 119 which notes that it allows playing h.264 using the hardware codec in the browser.
