The player doesn't start playing the video under Mageia Linux 2 in the web browser Mozilla Firefox 17 ESR whereas I can watch this video with VLC. I use the desktop manager KDE and then Dragon Player is used inside the web browser to play the video by default.

Currently, the only way I've found to play a video stored in an instance of GNU Mediagoblin in another website is the HTML5 markup video with the URL of the webm file. However, some web browsers don't support this format.

I suggest to add a button to provide a short piece of source code that would allow to embed the whole player in any web page. Maybe GNU Mediagoblin should convert the video files into several formats in order to have some fallback solutions when WebM isn't supported.

I don't know how to play a WebM video in MS IE 9 and it seems to support only H264 :(

right now the setuptools variable packages only includes 'mediagoblin'. This causes './setup.py install' or './setup.py build' to only pull in things that are in the package '^{mediagoblin$', and nothing else, like mediagoblin.*}
