This is not necessarily a bug with Firefox 4 beta 2 but i was really really really hoping that you would implement some 'more' support for HTML5 video. I know it supports 'ogg' but id say 90% of people don't have that format of video to play or even to upload to a server for example my problem is i dont want to spend money to convert an mp4 to ogg i mean really this is Firefox not IE could you just please ad support to html5 video using 'MP4 FORMAT' please email me back! [e-mail] 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.just go here for an example html5 video does not play(because its mp4 not ogg)
2.http://www.joycekevin.com/html5.html
3.
Actual Results:  
?video does not display because its not an Ogg format but i think you should incorporate mp4 with html like chrome and safari
