The HTML5 video will be viewable in all modern day browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Safari and Firefox. If you are downloading these browsers for the first time then just make sure you have all the latest updates downloaded for them as well. They usually prompt you automatically about the updates.
If your browser error "HTML5 video file not found", it means that your browser is not up to date or website pages does not have a suitable video codec. It would help if you communicated with the developer to solve the issue and install all the required codecs.
so the answer is that for all fits and purposes, IE8 does not support html5 - just some randome bits and pieces of it. Which makes using HTML5 (as in HTML markup, not scripting API's) moot. If you want HTML 5 support in IE 8 then download the IE plugin called "Chrome Frame".
Opera 10.50 has now been released on Windows, and it supports the HTML5 video and audio elements.
There's a nice standard way of setting up HTML5 video with flash and other fallbacks.
Please see Video for Everybody for a nice generator of HTML5 tags with fallback options.
Alternatively, here's another great library, with JS/CSS code to make it work consistently.
