In the meantime, someone has created a new needle, which I'm not sure makes too much of a semantic sense: https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/os-autoinst-needles-sles/commit/584e139f3aeab7ac10da7167722c0daa3752a032
Also, the previous needle seemed to be entirely wrong too, with very weirdly selected matching areas heaped on one another.

From a broader perspective though, I'm not sure whether our firefox_html5 test makes much sense altogether at this point. Due to the fact that the html5 player has been youtube's default video player for years now, while Flash has been essentially dead anyway all this time, perhaps it would make more sense testing whether the player is even there and actually plays something, rather than checking a random site that just detects the browser version and announces that this particular browser has youtube's seal of approval.

Any thoughts on that?

I agree. https://bugzilla.suse.com/tr_show_case.cgi?case_id=1479221 was the original base for the automated test module. A test checking simply if playback works would be nice if this can be achieved in a stable and robust way.
