I have been able to get record and playback working in IE, utilizing
google chrome frame plugin for IE.

Just need to add one line to playback.html in head section.
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="chrome=1">

this instructs IE to use chrome frame for playback, i tested with this
line added, playback works in Chrome, Firefox, and now IE on a
windows 7 machine just fine, The chat text, audio, and slides all
work great.

Users just need to install

You can install it by visiting http://www.google.com/chromeframe.

For deployments in an enterprise environments, administrators can skip
to the enterprise deployment section.

needs further testing, but adding this line to playback.html should
support IE with chrome-frame extensions.

Thanks.

Committed the change and Guga added a check if the chrome frame is
already installed.

Richard, Great, should hold us over till IE gets its act together and
fully supports html5.
