I can drop an OGG or WebM video directly onto Firefox and it will play but when using the HTML 5 Video tag the video will not play. The tags play the appropriate video in Safari and Chrome fine but not in Firefox. Here is the code: 

<video width="960" height="400" controls="controls" autoplay="autoplay" loop="loop" poster="http://theactingcenterla.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Phylicia-Jackson-HomeHeader3.jpg">
<source src="http://theactingcenterla.com/wp-content/uploads/PromoVideo-WebPage960.ogv" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"' />
<source src="http://theactingcenterla.com/wp-content/uploads/PromoVideo-WebPage960-600k.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="http://theactingcenterla.com/wp-content/uploads/PromoVideo-WebPage960.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8.0, vorbis"'/> 
</video>

That is a problem with the server.

The WebM and OGG file are send as text/plain and that doesn't work with the video tag.


You need to make sure that you send the file with a supported MIME type. 

AddType audio/ogg oga ogg
AddType video/ogg ogv
AddType video/webm .webm

Worked perfectly. We're on GoDaddy so I just added the above 3 lines to the root level .htaccess file and it worked like a charm.

Thanks!
