    I couldn’t understand why the videos would not play in Firefox, even though I had the correct ogv format on the server, and linked properly.

    It worked fine on another site that I created using Godaddy hosting. However, on IX Web Hosting, it would not run. I could drop the ogv video file directly into Firefox, and it would play that way, but not from the embedded code output from this plugin.

    After doing some searching, I found the fix. I just needed to add this to the htaccess file.

    —————

    AddType video/ogg .ogv
    AddType video/mp4 .mp4
    AddType video/webm .webm

    AddType audio/mpeg .mp3
    AddType audio/ogg .ogg
    AddType audio/mp4 .m4a
    AddType audio/wav /wav
