FF 41b5, Win XP STR: 1. Open http://techslides.com/demos/sample-videos/small.mp4 Actual results: "Save as" window displayed. If Quicktime plugin is installed, the video is played using Quicktime. Expected results: The video should play using the native player. Works fine on Win 7.
Windows XP doesn't have Windows Media Foundation. It can't play H264 data natively without the use of a plugin (either flash or Quicktime). native MP4 is only supported on Vista and later.
