Firefox on Android is supposed support MSE (for MP4/H.264, but not WebM/VP9). For example, YouTube MSE works in Firefox. Is it broken for you? That JW Player page is out of date. It also says MSE doesn't work on Firefox desktop. :)

I don't think MSE is yet enabled on Firefox mobile, it was not working the last time I tested.

It says unsupported here, I guess this one is up to date: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaSource

MSE has been available on Android since Firefox 41 (bug 1084456). That MDN page was out of date. Thanks for pointing out the error! I just updated it. :)
