I don't event think h265 is widely supported. On Windows you have to pay separately for it

Firefox has had support for h265 for a few months by now, they finally relented.
h264 and h265 are patent-encumbered and therefore very expensive and/or dangerous. Patent trolls would rip Mozilla apart and eat all their money. The only reason H.264 works atm is that Cisco sponsors a plugin for that.
