My distribution (FreeBSD's ports installation) does not come with a "slow" preset; here's the list of what I have:

libvpx-1080p
libvpx-1080p50_60
libvpx-360p
libvpx-720p
libvpx-720p50_60
libx264-baseline
libx264-ipod320
libx264-ipod640
libx264-lossless_fast
libx264-lossless_max
libx264-lossless_medium
libx264-lossless_slow
libx264-lossless_slower
libx264-lossless_ultrafast

Would you suggest a different preset?  Or perhaps can you furnish the contents of the "slow" preset file so that I can try that?

I re-ran the conversion like this:

ffmpeg -y -i '1321566272.uploaded' -f mp4 -threads 4 -vcodec libx264 -vpre libx264-lossless_slow -vpre libx264-baseline -b '391104' -acodec libfaac -ar 22050 -r 30 -g 150 -s '640x480' '1321566272.mp4'

That did not fix the problem; IE is still not playing the video.
