Solved www/firefox asks for codecs now?

Since a couple of last updates I could not listen to some radio podcasts on a page like this one https://www.radiorus.ru/brand/57091/episodes
And I get a banner on top of the page that I may need to install some codecs???

What is wrong now? Is it only my problem, may be with addons? But I haven't chaned them doring updates of Firefox that made listening impossible.

Version 96.0.3 on Windows still plays these podcasts.
 
Because the issue has nothing to do with the update process itself.

Those radio podcasts works for me on www/firefox 95.0_1,2 and 96.0.3,2.

Check addons which might inhibit the playback.

[EDIT] Try restart in "Troubleshoot Mode ...": "Open Application Menu" (top right corner of Firefox) -> Help

Just tried "Troubleshoot mode", without luck.
Do you see the banner about "video codecs"?

Firefox 96.0.3 compiled from ports on FreeBSD 13.0p6/amd64 plays it here, too. Maybe check it again with a brandnew user account, so you can exclude stuff from your users HOME.

Tried this also, the new user. Just the same. The banner about codecs and no sound from that radio site. (YouTube works, for instance.)

I do not use binary packages, everything is built from sources in /usr/ports.
Code: 
    url             : "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest",
    enabled         : yes,

So, not an issue with uBlock Origin or any other extension.

No. There's playback in normal mode (with many extensions enabled) and troubleshoot mode.
