Introduction

dojox/mobile/Video is a widget which plays video. This widget wraps the HTML5 <video> tag. If all sources cannot be played (typically, in desktop browsers that do not support <video>), dojox/mobile/Video automatically replaces <video> with <embed>, such that the browser tries to play it with a suitable plug-in.
