I tried it in three different browsers. In two, it just plain didn't
work (black rectangle, no error messages, nothing), and in the other it
gave a message like "Publishing in progress, check back
soon." (Interestingly, it was IE that more or less "worked".)

So I guess it's just not ready yet.

Unless anyone's already planning to, I'm going to set up torrents for
all the videos as I get ahold of them (provided that FF's
DownloadHelper plugin works with dailymotion.com) so people can use
their own video players and don't have to rely on some
webpage-embedded, online-only player. (I miss the pre-Web2.0 days
when "datafile" and "application" were still independent and could be
mixed/matched at the user's discresion.) *Cough* Erm, ...I mean,
torrents later if I can manage them ;)
