Ok, I kinda thought it might be a compatibility thing so I went hunting for a converter...

If anyone else runs into this and needs a quick FREE way to convert a video to OGV Theora format check out ffmpeg2theora ->http://v2v.cc/~j/ffmpeg2theora/...

Thanks for the link!

I've ran into another issue it seems... The videos I uploaded do not seem to want to play at all. I've tried IE9 and FF4 both up-to-date... All I get is a "X" in the middle of the playback window...

Any suggestions?

url?

I'd guess that the ogv element isn't being served correctly by the server, which is causing all browsers that use it to fail.

Just change the file extension from "ogv" to "ogg".

Hi all

sorry to dig up an old thread.

Just installed the HTML5 video player and created an OGG and MP4 files. works fine on all browsers except Firefox where I only get sound?

I've added this to my htaccess:

AddType video/mp4 mp4 m4v
AddType audio/mp4 m4a
AddType video/ogg ogv
AddType audio/ogg ogg oga
AddType video/webm webm

but still hasnt sorted it.. any ideas on how to fix this or if anyones ran into it before?

thanks for looking

it should be .ogv.

thanks for your reply,

I changed the extension in windows explorer to file.ogv

removed the block and re added my mp4 / ogv file

it still works in all browsers but firefox.

Do i need to encode it as an OGV or will renaming suffice?

thanks
