E/GeckoConsole( 2381): [JavaScript Warning: "HTTP "Content-Type" of "video/mp4" is not supported. Load of media resource http://www.dailymotion.com/cdn/H264-512x384/video/xqok89.mp4
Mozilla currently does not decode MP4 container format video. Dailymotion should provide fallback.

At OpenTheWeb in Opera, we noticed the same issue. We contacted them.
Dailymotion stopped making Ogg/webM videos and instead showed message "Unable to play this video in HTML5 player due to incompatible format - click here to view in Flash" to Opera and Firefox. Click here was broken and simply reloaded the page, with mp4 rather than Flash player.
To "fix" it, they've not got rid of the loop, but simply changed the message to simply say "Unable to play this video in HTML5 player due to incompatible format." "http://www.dailymotion.com/html5
So basically not a fix. I guess we need to unite our efforts on this to have a sensible user experience.
