 * I’m trying to add self hosted video to website pages.
    I have a PureVision wordpress
   theme using wordpress 3.3.1 on a hostgator patchling plan (shre hosting) I have
   the mediaelements.js plugin installed and have added the following to my .htaccess
   file:
 * AddType video/ogg .ogv
    AddType video/mp4 .mp4 AddType video/webm .webm
 * I had no problem embedding youtube video with the frame command. I’ve uploaded
   video to my medial library and tried entering the video url into the same frame,
   but the video opens as a popup. Using the mediaelements.js plugin with the recommended
   html5 I am now getting “file not found” error.
 * I’ve checked the php information which indicates that I can upload video up to
   6MB.
 * I’ve been messing with this for a while. Any simple solution??
