HTML5 Video Playback

I just got my first smart phone, a Verizon LGE VS870 4G and I run a business that requires the display of S3 Stored Videos. I used a service called EZS3 to build HTML5 players and on this page (http://filmmakersvillage.com/video) there are a number of videos that play without error on the mobile version of Chrome. However, the mobile version of firefox simply returns a blank white page. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (Keep in mind I'm a phone newbie and still getting my feet wet with this thing) Thank you in advance.

Dan PS: Phone says I'm using Firefox Version 21

Also as a note, I do have flash installed and can watch videos from Youtube.

Did an extensive amount of digging and found a thread where it says that firefox does not support flash for Android versions greater then 4.0 and mine is 4.1.2. Could this be the answer?

It's a little confusing because the subject line mentions HTML5 but it seems your site is serving Flash by default. Maybe test the Android HTML5 support mentioned in this article: Android detection added to eZs3 players for auto-switch to HTML5?
