Is kwebkitpart installed?
Also, try re-installing it if you had the previous one (the one built with qt 
4.8rc1).

I can reproduce any video in the website you linked above. (ReKonq + phonon-
vlc here)

There's no need to rebuild phonon, I'm using 1.6.0 right now and that is built 
upon [extra]. Indeed, you can try rebuilding kwebkitpart if html5 video still 
don't work.
