 > It looks, according to your video, like what you're doing is pasting a
 WordPress.tv URL into the post. That's going to result in an oEmbed
 external video player from WordPress.tv, which isn't something we can
 address directly in WordPress. However, we can raise the issue with the
 WordPress.com media player team, to see if we can address it there.

 helpful. I can see that the same problem you describe does exist on
 WordPress.tv, so I'm betting that I'm right about this.

 Yes Joe, you are right, I did just include the URL of the WordPress.tv
 video into the post. This is the first time I've wanted to embed a video
 from WordPress.tv so I though this would be the right way.

 Do you know of a better way to include a WordPress.tv video that is more
 keyboard accessible? Does your plugin help with this?
