I guess this won't work. Because conditional comments are totally
ignored by non-IEs. E.g. Firefox would read your code like this:
<object>
<parameter src="video.wmv">
<object data="video.wmv">
Then it is understood as two "objects".
The problem is now more or less "solved" now by preparing a video in a
second format (ogg) and use "video" tag for Firefox.
