New Zealand's Albany High School has transcoded many of the math
lessons to the Ogg format as part of their open math textbook
initiative.  They have made the open format files available through
the Wikimedia Commons.  I've used the Jukebox activity to play the
downloaded .ogv files from a USB thumb drive on an XO.
