Comment (by ocean90):

 The other issue could be tracked down too...

 There are differences between `SCRIPT_DEBUG` on and off. If on all is
 fine, if not, the sky is falling down.

 SCRIPT_DEBUG false: `<param name="source"
 value="silverlightmediaelement.xap"/>`
 SCRIPT_DEBUG true: `<param name="source" value="http://example.com/wp-
 includes/js/mediaelement/silverlightmediaelement.xap"/>`

 Why?
 [https://github.com/johndyer/mediaelement/blob/503a34458f0b4f13f7c59e6532cc6ef1b009422b/src/js
 /me-utility.js#L16-L61 That's why!]
 It's going through all `<script>` and tries to find mediaelement-and-
 player.*. Because it's going through load-scripts.php as ?load=foo,bar,wp-
 mediaelement it can't find it.

 Solution: Set pluginPath, see [attachment:24902.3.diff​] (We will do it in
 a better way without hardcoding it.)
