Mention VLC plugin perhaps?
Again, you're making suggestions to create an image of pseudo-neutrality. The VLC plugin is notoriously problematic in practice. Your suggestion would be actively misleading. I strongly suggest you read the wikitech-l thread.
We didn't put "this PNG file doesn't look right because you are useing IE6" anywhere. Effectively suggesting that people should switch to anyone browser is the kind of thing that is likely to cause problems down the road. Ideally we will always be introducing new formats and the like and when that happens other providers will have a legitimate complaint if we don't recommend them.
Incidentally in the demo version the smaller version of the file (the thumbnail) the recommendation doesn't work too well in seamoneky 1.1.17 since it escapes the video box.
Works fine in IE 6 though which is probably more important.
