How to add mime-type for <video> element on Firefox ?

Question

Hi everybody,

Into this dir there are :

• OGV video (Theora/Vorbis) for Firefox
• MP4 video (H264/AAC) for Safari
• FLV video with a flash player (player.swf) for others browsers
• a template.html which contains a snippet coming from Video for everybody
• a .htaccess to add the new types of video

Locally the video is correctly displayed on all browsers. But online Firefox doesn't display the video and ask for a download. Though the mime-type is correctly set in my .htaccess.

Any idea to fix this problem on Firefox ? (I use 3.5.3 release on Windows).

Thank you. :)

Note: it sounds that this problem doesn't appear on Ubuntu.

Edit : my Firefox installation was bugged. Now it's working correctly. Thank you Rudism. :)

It may be worth trying it in Google Chrome which support video/ogg as well. May help you debug...
