Hmmm.  I am not so sure about the movies being embedded.  
I have an old pdf made by latex that certainly has the movies embedded.
I was always able to freely move the pdf file alone and still play the
movies inside them.  I have one of those, and it is a very large file (14MB),
which suggests that it has the movies embedded.  I was also able to move the
pdf alone from my desktop to my laptop and have it work.  However, now if I
move
it to another directory without the movies, okular cannot play them.  It seems
as if okular is just assuming that it needs to look externally. Unfortunately,
the only way to track this question down would be to install a whole new OS 
(Ubuntu 16.04) on a VM and try changing things there. 

I just tried to attach the media files, but they are too large.
The additional problem that I mentioned is that the movie shows up,
but just flashes quickly, as if there were just one or two frames.
