Playing this page works great here using the mozilla mplayer plugin:
http://www.apple.com/trailers/imax/imaxdeepsea3d/trailer/
Description: MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla


To Install:
sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer

I'm using Ubuntu Dapper Drake and have version 3.21-2.

Let us know how things go,

Elijah
