I didn't find any link to a wiki in getlazarus.org, so I'm forced to post just here.
Which Wiki did you refer to?

The video in your HTML5 page doesn't appear to be multiplatform accessible.

To play it under CentOs 6, which is quite popular in enterprise/corporation environment a user is forced to install proprietary codecs, which don't come with the distribution and may give rise to licensing/patent issues, and a Firefox version directly downloaded from mozilla website, and not subject to RedHat security scrutiny.

I'd suggest a look to http://techslides.com/sample-webm-ogg-and-mp4-video-files-for-html5 , where you can find an example of appropriate handling of multiple video formats (by using multiple <source ..> tags).

Then there's a lot of tools for converting video formats, to provide viable alternatives.
Under Linux, for example, a simple old fashioned

ffmpeg -i myfile.mp4 -f ogg myfile.ogv

does the trick of converting from patented mp4 format to free ogg format.

Under Windows the Handbrake converter is free and open source: http://www.handbrake.fr/

Just my 2 cents,

Giuliano
