Are you using Metro mode or normal mode?

Normal. I have disabled the Metro Mode. (Work at MS), this issue was present in 
the Developer Preview (released to allow devs to find issues to resolve them) 
and now still present in the Consumer Preview. I should note, that IE10 is more 
or less Signed off on the MS side, so I doubt RC or RTM will reflect any major 
changes to allow this add-on to work better.

Adding Matt Heaney. 

Have you installed our WebM Windows Media Foundation plugins? (We are aware 
that IE10 doesn't support WebM natively.)

Yes. And have gotten the green check mark in the FAQ page. Is there anyway  to 
opt out and select the old codec instead? A drop down selection would be 
perfect. Forcing the new one is not.

Hi again. Can you tell us what happens when you try to play a WebM video with 
the plugins installed? Do you get an error?

Also, I'm not clear what you mean by the "old codec." We haven't made any 
updates to that package since it was first released last year.

I'm sorry, but if your bug fix closure is to say use chrome instead, you must 
be crazy. That's like taking your car to get fixed and they tell you 'we don't 
want to fix it, here take this bicycle.' It would be an unacceptable answer 
right? But then again it's a classic google response, I should know I used to 
work there.

Hi again, Matthew. 

I've spoken to the people we collaborated with at MS to write the WebM 
components, are they seeing no problems in IE10. They would like more details 
so they can try to reproduce.

WebM is part of MS test suite, we have not heard from them directly. Can you 
give us more feedback?

I have IE10 with Win 7, and I already installed the webm plugin:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/webmmf
but I still can not reproduce webm in IE10

What is the nature of your test?  Are you trying to render a local file using a 
local HTML page that refers to the local file?  Or are you streaming it from a 
remote source?  What's is the file?  Do you have a URL?

Does the file render when you use the Open URL option in WMP?
