Chromebook to support .mov or .mp4-movies with H264 or MPEG4 codec??

So with a Chromebook/box you can't watch movies with the above mentioned formats, due to no support of those. Anyone know about an upgrade eventually? Kind regards /Peter

In all the years on Chromebooks, those CODECs  support have not changed. I can tell you that supporting other CODECs is very low in developer priority, indeed if such are even being worked on.

I'm a bit confused. This Google Help page specifically lists these CODECS as supported:
