    Opera Mini isn’t a browser in the classic sense:

    From http://www.opera.com/mobile/specs/:

    Opera Mini always uses Opera’s advanced server compression technology
    to compress web content before it gets to a device. The rendering
    engine is on Opera’s server.

    Which is why it won’t support the video tag.
