Hello Kris,

Our group employs Flowplayer for a number of projects, including Mediathread 
[1], as well as for our custom, local services for course-related online video. 
It has been a particularly helpful media player for our group as we serve a 
good amount of our video files using http streaming (i.e. pseudostreaming) in 
Flash and (soon) H.264. One pain point in using the open-source version is the 
"Flowplayer" branding, which can be removed if you buy a license.

medialement.js [2], is another media player we are looking at closer these days.

Guess it comes down to if you are looking for a media player that provides 
general playback, or deeper integration with your own tools at MIT… Either way, 
I hope that this is helpful. 

Cheers,
Brian
