Nope !... Media URLs pointing to *.mp3/4g *.avi *.wav *.you_name_it_media_type *still* use the QuickTime (for Mac and Windows) or gstreamer (for Linux) plugin... There is confusion in many people mind's about media streams embedded inside a web page (which indeed are played via CEF now, provided the web page is using HTML5 or a proper CEF plugin exists for the embedded media stream) and raw media file URLs: the latter are *not* played via CEF. Just look at the code in llviewermedia.cpp...
