To clarify, "Miro" is a desktop media application.  GNOME Miro Community
is a web-site that runs on the Miro Community service.  So "Miro video"
doesn't mean anything to me.

I tested your YouTube video link GNOME Miro Community using the
<iframe...> embed code from that page and it doesn't work--only uses the
Flash Player:

This isn't a problem with GMC.  I have the same problem on a basic web-page:

http://bluesock.org/~willg/test/gmc.html


I went through the google.com support thread at the link above and
fiddled with the <iframe...> code to no avail.  As near as I can tell,
right now you can't embed the html5/webm format.
