Bug Description
Ubuntu should replace its homepage videos with videos that will work on Firefox without Flash.
http://
Vimeo has some HTML5 support but not for Firefox: http://
Original description
--
it claims that the video cannot play without flash because firefox 4 is not html5 compatible. What the junk?!?! yes it is! and since its the default browser with ubuntu maybe you should consider putting that video into one of the html5 video formats compatible with firefox 4 so that people don't need flash to play ubuntu website's own videos. Just fyi.

Not confirming here - it works fine for me. In any case, it doesn't look like a Firefox problem
