I have followed the documentation, installed JW media player, SWFObject 2 & checked for any warnings but I still just see the spinning icon and no video. I allowed my media types in cck and at /admin/settings/swftools/handling ("Extensions to associate with videos").

I still cannot get an mp4 to play. The file size seems fine, it's under 1 MB. I have attached a screen capture from firebug in case anyone can find any anomalies in the generated code.

It turns out this was an issue with the specific video I was using as a test that the client had given me. Other mp4's work fine. Closing issue.

I am getting this issue as well, difference is the video plays in all other browsers except firefox? what could be causing this to occur?

I am converting videos from flash to mp4 for a client so a response would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Craig

@blingximus Did you try my hinted suggestion from #1 and use a video that you know to be working elsewhere?

Started using Video.js player, took some fiddling, but once I updated video module and made sure the video.js module and its library matched up utilizing the status report option in drupal, everything started working and firefox falls back to flash.
