What just happened?

Since version 5.1.7, all video sites have stopped working except for YouTube. The exact symptoms will depend on this site.

Clarification of this report after speaking with Whirly who is FS staff.
Reporter means 5.1.7 of FireStorm not SL, so in this case it means FS integrating the last few SL releases, and so "video not working" means changes introduced in SL 5.1.3.513644 DRTVWR-449.

I was watching another issue that appeared to be more or less exactly the same issue  https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-225196  , and was horrified to see that it was closed yesterday as "Expected Behavior", and pointing to an update to the wiki that now says

"Note: At this time, it is not possible to play embedded .mp4 files in Second Life using Shared Media. "

Please tell me this is not the case! I have been waiting patiently since August for some kind of movement and this, and now have this sinking feeling that 4 years of development work on my product and a not inconsiderable amount of money is now up in smoke.
