html5media Script Renders <video> in Any Browser

As you’re probably aware, the <video> element isn’t natively supported by all browsers (yet). This was the only missing piece in my attempt to make the Colosseo site fully HTML5, and it meant embedding the “making of” video via Vimeo (Flash) rather than storing it server-side and using something like the SublimeVideo player for playback.

Dave Hall’s html5media script is a transitional solution that allows you to use <video> in your markup, and browsers that don’t yet support it will be fed a Flash-based player.
