No, as I said the strategy would be MP4+H264+AAC and use javascript
rollover that either renders a flash object for decode, or html5 code
for browsers capable of decoding the mp4, or a posterframe for
incompatible browsers. Standard approach.
Of course you will want to deliver the mp4 via a server capable of
rendering both segmented streaming as well as http dynamic or rtsp on
the fly, such as wowza, erlyvideo, fluendo, etc.
