As of WordPress 3.6, mediaelements.js is included in WordPress and videos can be embedded using the Post Editor as outlined at http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds . It has been a month or two since I last looked, but I believe they stopped developing the wordpress plugin when it was decided it would be included in WP 3.6.

To answer you particular error specifically, can you provide either a snippet or URL to the page?
