Hi all,

First of all thanks to all the amazing people here who are helping alot on
the accessibility issues.

We have an ask where the HTML5 video player to be used which has proper
keyboard focus on controls and also keyboard accessible.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/video

The default HTML5 video player renders differently on Firefox and Chrome
and the keyboard focus on player controls works fairly better on chrome.

Can someone suggest how can the keyboard accessibility be achieved for the
default video players on Firefox?

Thanks in advance!

Sudhy.
