** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058331 Title: <video> tag only works for relative URLs with webm Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: This works (video plays): <html> <head></head> <body> <video width="420" height="236" controls="controls" src="DM3-NFF2012-Dream.webm"> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> </body> </html> but this does not ("Video format or MIME type is not supported."): <html> <head></head> <body> <video width="420" height="236" controls="controls" src="http://www.ekran.org/ben/video/DM3-NFF2012-Dream.webm"> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> </body> </html> It's the same file. If the problem is network access to that file, then typing the URL into firefox should not work (it does), also if there is some network issue the message should not reference a codec/mime issue.
