Firefox won't play .ogv video files when loading a server. Does anyone have answers will fix this?

I read the suggestions to resolve this, and none of them work. I've updated my .htaccess to match the MIME types for .ogv, I downloaded the binary files and ASCII, neither method works. The .ogv file plays well when you load from a local file, but it will not play seen from a remote server. I confirmed with my hosting company the .htaccess and other issues for HTML5 are up-to-date. Safari and Chrome play the HTML5 videos very well, but not Firefox. Does anyone have concrete answers as to what is the problem. I also use .webm and .mp4 video files, but none of these formats work in Firefox either.

I pestered my hosting a bit more and told them that all topics help here said it was a hosting problem. They double-checked and did a little work on their end, and * voila *, everything works fine now!

The bottom line advice: Pester your hosting service to solve this problem!

  • Video won't play html published file when it is moved to the new Web site

    Cannot understand it.
    I have a video file to stream my published Flash file.  Works fine at home.
    All files are in one folder.  Transfer the file on a USB key to bring it to school and
    When I load up on the Web site I get this spin green/black on the skin of the piece and
    the video will not play.  I'll double check to see if I can play on my machine of the school
    directly to the USB output and it does not work either (he did on my machine at home).
    Any ideas on how I'm spoil?   Thank you

    OK by what you say, I assume you are using the flash component. To the place where you have been searching for that modification of the file, the path to be compared to only have the name of the video instead of the path. I have attached a screenshot.

  • Why the latest Firefox won't play YouTube videos

    Everything worked fine until the latest version of Firefox, now I can't play YouTube videos. No problem with Chrome or IE. Firefox screwed up something with their latest version. Problem started on 09/03/15.

    1) enter the config by typing about: config in the address bar.
    (2) enter media.mediasource.webm.enabled press ENTER.
    (3) make a right click on it and change to true, for some reason any, defined as 'false', which makes the MSE & WebM VP9 does not work correctly.
    (4) visit: https://www.youtube.com/html5 and check that everything is OK.
    (5) tries to watch a video. It should work now.

  • Why won 't play my video files on my Macbook.

    I searched on the web and all sorts of forums about this. All I've found is to download this and that, but I still cannot play video files that I made on my Moto Droid on my Macbook. I downloaded VLC as most of the post suggests, but still no luck. I would really like to show my vids on my Macbook... any help would be appreciated.

    Excellent, only glad it worked. If you don't mind, you will mark this thread "answered" and mark my answer as the correct answer?

  • has could not initialize photoshop because an unexpected end of file was encountered? Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Everything I try to open my CC photoshop I get "could not initialize photoshop because an unexpected end of file has been detected" is this someone knows how to fix this?

    I think the fix for that we should reset the preferences in Preferences > general.   I really hope it works, because I hate to put things the way I like them after a reset of preferences.

  • Firefox won't let me open other windows even my trusted sites, which can do to fix this?

    When I check my email tickets and places of work that I will I know they are approved, but whenever I click on the link, a message appears saying Firefox prevented this page automatically redirecting to another page. What can I do to stop this? It is not fair to some pages, every one of them that I have to click the button allow on the right side of the page to open the page. Because some of my game sites have pop up windows for the game I have unlock the windows pop up I check everything on my computer and everything works fine.

    Hi oneangryviewer

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe or make changes.

    Clear the cache and cookies from sites that cause problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    If that doesn't help, then please start a new thread.

    You can provide more information such as your operating system and installed extensions and plugins installed.

  • Firefox 7 won't play YouTube videos

    Running Win7 x 64. Upgrade to Firefox 7, then YouTube videos stopped playing. YouTube keeps insisting that I have to install the latest flash player, what I've done several times ("install_flashplayer10_mssa_aih.exe" and "install_flashplayer11x64_mssa_aih" versions), clear cookies, restart and all that crap. Firefox refuses to play YouTube videos. Internet Explorer 9 (x 64) plays great YouTube videos. Don't use Firefox more. You've got to SUPPORT your application instead of users leaving Wade. It is also why I HATE the upgrade. It causes too often new incompatibilities when I just want to leave what works, the hell alone.

    The Adobe forum, someone suggested

       * go to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550 and
             o download the 64-bit uninstaller
             o download the 64-bit installer
       * close all browser windows, then run the downloaded uninstaller
       * restart Windows
       * delete any remaining files in
             o C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
             o C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash
       * now run the downloaded installer
    

    It still does not work. Then someone else said to install the ActiveX Installer, I found somewhere online.

    THEN finally it worked. But I still don't understand why I have to jump through additional hoops, which are not explained in the first place-YT says I need to upgrade (even if my old machine W2k with FF 3 and Flash 10 works fine), I click on the link on YT taking me to Adobe, I download and install like lead instructions , but it does not work. Why didn't ActiveX installs as well as the installer of Flash if necessary?

    (1) Perform SFC first. Follow the link on how to make SFC (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833)
