There are certaintly controls defined on the video element, and the vide on it's own displays controls (http://people.mozilla.com/~atrain/mobile/tests/nocontrols.html). This leads me to believe that they are being cut off by a div container for some reason.

The unified controls in bug 704229 help with this a bit.

I don't have time to look at this right now. We need to make our controls more responsive (a bit hard since the w3c refuses to let us know the size of a particular element in our stylesheets, but desktop's already done some legwork here.

It would also be really nice if they knew the zoom level and could adjust to it as well...
