Question #208747 on AC100_enablement changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ac100/+question/208747

    Status: Open => Solved

Ivan Zakharyaschev confirmed that the question is solved:
I've tested this in Ubuntu 12.04 on Toshiba AC100 (ARM):

in Chromium, under the videos at vk.com, there is a notice saying that
Flash Player is required, or one can load the HTML5 player (the 2nd
option is a clickable link). If one clicks the "HTML5 player" link, the
video is played rather well.

Similarly for audio at vk.com in Chromium (some tracks are played badly,
others quite well).

In Firefox, there is no such "HTML5 player" addendum in the notice under
a video, hence the conclusion: videos from vk.com can't be played in
Firefox in Ubuntu 12.04 on ARM, but they can in Chromium.
