Not sure what's happening there - it fails for me using IE11 in IE8 emulation mode, as well.
A few things I would fix right off the bat, however. Your second line is:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
But you're coding HTML5, not XHTML. So replace that with just:
<html>
I also see that you're loading swfobject.js, which is not needed, and may actually be interfering. Just delete that entirely for now.
You have no <body> section on the page at all.
There is no closing </html> tag.
In short, get the coding right before trying to do any further debugging.

It looks to me that IE8 does not like this line:
size: “30%”
You need to make it a pixel value, then it will work.
size: “300”

Good catch, Ethan.
I see that David has made most of the other fixes, which is a good thing. However, "Connected successfully" should be within the <body> tags, not floating out in no-man's land.

It looks like the % issue with the listbar only happens in IE8 when a responsive player is used. I logged a ticket.

Thank you very much! I have one more question - when I start playback this playlist on Android 4.0 + videos do not play automatically in a row. I have to tap on play button. Is it because videos are from Youtube? Is there any solution?

Np! This is an issue with YouTube HTML5.
