Mozilla launches video accessibility drive

,----[ Quote ]
| Video and audio support will soon be built directly into Firefox, by way of 
| the free Vorbis and Theora codecs, and Mozilla is using the opportunity to 
| advance multimedia accessibility for hearing-impaired and seeing-impaired 
| users. Although HTML 5 does not officially include Ogg Vorbis and Theora as 
| baseline codecs for the new VIDEO and AUDIO tags, Mozilla has adopted them 
| for its own implementation. Researcher Silvia Pfeiffer is leading a Mozilla 
| Foundation-funded effort to integrate support for closed captioning and other 
| multimedia accessibility features into the Ogg formats and their 
| implementation in Firefox.

Theora Video Backend for Firefox Landed

,----[ Quote ]
| It was announced at the Firefix Plus summit today that Firefox will include
| native Theora and Vorbis support for the HTML 5 media elements. So <video>
| and <audio> will support those codecs built into Firefox itself. Chris
| Blizzard posted about this earlier.
