I have a video embed with the primary set to "flash". All desktop browsers on Mac and desktop browsers on Windows 7 except Firefox deliver the mp4 wrapped in a flash object. But Firefox on Windows 7 delivers the mp4 as html5. Why is that?
Or, to clarify, the JWPlayer plugin delivers the mp4.
A threshold question: why do you have the primary set to Flash?
Are you sure the MP4 is being served up in Firefox in Windows using HTML5? Do you actually have Flash installed on Firefox?
Try this link in Firefox in Windows:

This comes up in Flash on my machine, as it should.
Thanks for the reply. It's taken me a while to circle back around. It turns out my issue has something to do with some additional scripting I'm running with the video embed. When I enter the code statically, all is well. But I have a dynamic call to the video file combined with an image-swapping script in a kind of mixed image/video gallery thing. I think my real solution is to reprocess all the legacy video files, as some weren't properly mp4 encoded, and the old script that loaded them in Flash was hiding that fact.
