I'd say that depends on your browser's ability / plugin-support for that 
video container / encoding.

As for audio, I can see that TiddlyWiki has (some) native support for audio 
tiddlers...

http://tiddlywiki.com/#Audio

...at least via the content-type...

*audio/mp3*

...see http://tiddlywiki.com — audio files 
<http://tiddlywiki.com/#Caruso%20-%20Ave%20Maria:%5B%5BCaruso%20-%20Ave%20Maria%5D%5D%20TiddlyWiki.mp3>

I can imagine there is no content-type support for video yet (at least 
there's none such in *sidebar* / *more* / *types*),
but you can always see if you can get it to work using the old-fashioned 
html *<object>* tag.

http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_object.asp

...or that HTML 5 version...

*http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.asp*

Once you've got that working, you can easily wrap it up in a global macro 
<http://tiddlywiki.com/#Macros> and simply call...

*<<object path/to/file.mp4>>*

Best wishes, Tobias.
