This is what I did; I hope it can help you
reproduce the issue. All you need is to use the “*video.mp4*” file
shipped in *XXE/doc/dita/images/*, and the sample files you sent me.
1) I used the sample **.xml* and video file (*create_doc.mp4*) you
attached to your response. *I worked fine.*
2) Then, I added a third /<videoobject>/ using the “*video.mp4*”
file shipped with XXE-7.3 in *$XXE/doc/dita/images/*. With this third
video object, I got the Java FX exception I mentioned:
/“Could not create player!”. / *Not only this*, but the embedded player
with the local file -- that was previously OK -- now also shows also a
Java FX exception://
I didn't manage to reproduce the problem on my Linux box by doing (1)
then (2), but I will also test this on Windows and get back to you.
3) If I remove the extra <videoobject> and redraw (Ctrl+L) XXE
windows, everything gets back to normal.
OK.
I get the same issue with the other video files I have tried so far (Ogg
format, video/ogg; we produce *.ogg video internally).
This is normal. The Ogg format is not supported by JavaFX.
As explained here: "Specify alternate audio and video formats whenever
possible",
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.xmledit.media.MediaInfoEditor.html
, the best strategy is to specify several video files, e.g. ogg but also
mp4.

Specify alternate audio and video formats whenever possible
The embedded media player only supports playing few audio and video
formats, mainly .mp3 (audio/mpeg) , .wav (audio/x-wav), .m4a
(audio/x-m4a), .mp4 (video/mp4).
This should not prevent you from specifying alternate audio and video
formats like .ogg (audio/ogg), .webm (video/webm), etc. Such formats may
be the only ones supported by the application which will be used to open
your deliverable (example: Apple iBook used to open the EPUB 3 book
resulting from the conversion of a DITA document). So it is important to
specify alternate audio and video formats whenever possible.

When transformed (tried: WebHelp, HTML), everything works fine; except
that the video are in /autoplay/ mode although I did not set it. I guess
this is more a DocBook stylesheet issue ?
Yes.

OK; what information would you need ?

This could be the key to reproducing the issue, so please send me this info.
