Same here using the latest version of Firefox, although it started to
play using Safari on my iPad. Would only play a couple of seconds
before having to stop and load the buffer again.

Well, I'm using an up to date version of Firefox and it can't even tell
me the plug in I need. Sorry.

* Chrome works fine, even with just the basic video tag. Chrome also
seems to stream much better than IE or FF, which are really stuttery
to play. I have the preload option on.
* IE worked eventually after adding a few meta cryptic tags and
re-encoding in H.264. Unfortunately, my slideshow maker (ProShow
Producer) squirts out video in xvid codec. So I had to re-encode it.
* Firefox was disappointing. No H.264 support out of the box; had to
install the WMP plugin to get it to work. There seems to be a
workaround to double encode in OGG which I'd do that if I had the space.
* Can't test Safari or Opera, so I hope this works.
Does anyone know how to tweak the 'control' option to have full-screen
available on IE and Firefox? Only seems to be available for Chrome.
Its a 1080 file, so it's a shame it can't be viewed that way.
On a side note, I thought I'd kill two tech birds with one stone.
Adorama gave me 20GB with Pogoplug for free, for life. I tried
uploading the video file to save room on my personal sitespace. But
darn it crawls along with uploading, and not that great downloading
either. Will do further investigations.
Anyhoo, here is my first '5 vid

Oh, happy new year, everyone. Hope you stayed out of trouble.
