the set_uri() will be called only for <audio> and <video> elements. But you
have an interesting point anyway. We can already check if one mime-type is
supported by our player or not, but this code is in the media player itself.
Could be worth outsourcing it and reusing it in set_uri(). Gustavo, what do you
think?
