Are that normal videos or special HTML5 videos?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Tried all that, didn't work. I'm not sure if the videos are HTML5 or not though. How would I tell?
