Not on a Fedora system right now, but the
http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/video/ example is working for
me on Firefox 3.5.5 on Slackware (pausing, backwards and forwards,
etc.), so that might be a Fedora-specific problem. The
http://www.youtube.com/html5 example does not work, right clicking on
it to 'save as' shows it is an mp4 file, which is probably not
supported without extra plugins. The failure to specify a basic codec
support for HTML5 was its major failing.
