JW Player HTML5-only mode

I'm trying to setup JW Player to playback in HTML5-only mode. Apparently it doesn't work and I only get to see the flash fallback.

My setup:

<div id='videoContainer'>This text will be replaced</div>
  <script type='text/javascript'>
    jwplayer('videoContainer').setup({
      'flashplayer': '/jwplayer/player.swf',
      'file': '/videos/clip_01.mp4',
      'image': '/images/preview.jpg',
      'skin': '/jwplayer/skins/lulu.zip',
      'backcolor': 'FFFFFF',
      'frontcolor': '000000',
      'lightcolor': '000000',
      'screencolor': '000000',
      'controlbar': 'bottom',
      'width': '640',
      'height': '480',

      'modes': [
          { type: "html5",
            config: {
              file: "/videos/clip_01.mp4"
            }
          },
          //I commented this line out so it doesn't fallback to flash
          //{ type: "flash", src: "/jwplayer/player.swf" },
          { type: "download" }
      ]
    });
  </script>

Am I doing something wrong or is this feature not yet available?

If a non MP4 supporting browser such as Firefox or Opera is being used, then it will default to Flash.
