I was able to play the video - but *only* if I open the video url
(<http://wqdatalive.com/uploads/video/TREC/NOAA_RSC_A_2014_05_07_12_02_00.mp4>)
in a seperate tab/window (with flash turned on or flash turned off and
webM only turned on).

file NOAA_RSC_A_2014_05_07_12_02_00.mp4
NOAA_RSC_A_2014_05_07_12_02_00.mp4: ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 1

Perhaps related to:
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=975809>
( Video format or MIME type is not supported. - should do content
sniffing on video tag )

 (BTW: Opened w/o issue in Chromium Version 34.0.1847.116 Ubuntu 14.04
aura (260972))
