I can't view the embedded videos in the forums, using the Chrome browser on my android tablet anymore.
Is this because they are flash based? According to the internets, flash is not supported on android anymore, only html5, but I don't know if that is reason?
If only they featured an external link atleast, so I could go open them in the Youtube app, but the only thing I get is a "plugin not supported" message, and thats it.
Any ideas?

Mozilla added support for html5, and briefly
blocked use of flash when it was found to be
compromised by zero day hacks, a while back.
The html5 player at that time wouldn't show
the embedded vids here. But I have html5 on
this mozilla browser at the moment, according
to the little add-on which can switch them out,
and the latest version seems to display the
vids (assuming the add-on is working as advertised).
