I am making the transition from XO 1 to XO 1.75. I plug in a USB with some
*.ogv to play on a FEW new XO1.75 (12.1.0 customised build 10 ). When I click
on it some files will play but some would not play at all - as if it is
choking!. Run fine on my XO 1.0.
I'm not sure if the VMETA processor will help with .ogv (presumably
theora codec?) files, but it is worth a try.

and

These might work in jukebox, but I've had better luck in whaawmp which
you can get from yum.
I tested these drivers in June last year on build 14, I don't know if
they will work in build 10, I do know we tested them shortly after some
necessary changes in the build.
If these drivers work but don't help your video files, you could
transcode then to a format that is accelerated by the VMETA hardware.
youtube's format 18 videos play well on an XO-1.75 with these drivers, I
use
youtube-dl -f 18 <video url>
to get them and then play in a video player. They don't play well in any
browser I've tried.
