HTML5 YouTube Embed

Hello, I'm having an issue with the latest FireFox and IE not loading HTML5 video (I dont have and want any Flash/Shockwave installed). Chrome works fine though.

When I enable the Media:Youtube module to "Use the HTML5 player instead of the Flash-based" I get this screen, a blank area where the video use to be and a download pop-up: (Picture oo3)

With the "Use the HTML5 player instead of the Flash-based" turned off, in Firebug, you can see it's loaded as Flash: (Picture oo2)

So instead of using the Embedded Media Field module, I created a custom page with a direct copy & paste of the YouTube embed code, and it works fine (HTML5 is loaded as you can see in the bottom picture): (Picture oo1)

Note, I tried embedding both the URL and embed code from YouTube.

    I am closing this issue, since it is for a Drupal version that now is not supported.
    Please re-open it if the issue is also relevant for other project branches that require a supported Drupal version.
