[IAEP] share videos from XO?

[Walter Bender]

Curious. I just created a video on my XO and tried to upload it to
dailymotion.com. Dailymotion complained that the file type was not
supported. I copied the file onto a USB key and then uploaded it from
a firefox browser on Ubuntu. It load without any complaints.

I'll dig a bit deeper. But meanwhile, we know that the problem is not .ogv.
