OGV file does not play. Mime type set, checked Curl, tried to disable GZIP on the server

Question

I have been following numerous posts over the past two days. Firefox will not play the OGV file on this link , but it works fine on the local server. chmod 777 file chmod 777 .

This is in the .htaccess file:

 SetEnv no-gzip dont-vary RewriteRule . - [E=no-gzip:0] <FilesMatch "^(?!.*\.ogg$|.*\.ogv$).+" > <IfModule filter_module> FilterDeclare COMPRESS FilterProvider COMPRESS DEFLATE env=notogg true FilterProvider COMPRESS DEFLATE resp=Content-Type /text/(html|css|javascript|plain|x(ml|-component))/ FilterProvider COMPRESS DEFLATE resp=Content-Type /application/(javascript|json|xml|x-javascript)/ FilterChain COMPRESS FilterProtocol COMPRESS change=yes;byteranges=no </IfModule> </FilesMatch> AddType audio/ogg .oga .ogg AddType video/ogg .ogv AddType application/ogg .ogg AddType video/webm .webm AddType video/mp4 .mp4 

I have this at the top of the page:

 <?php ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 'Off'); ?> 

This is the code:

 <video width="720" height="405" controls autoplay preload > <source src="beautiful_soul_aw111.mp4" type='video/mp4' /> <source src="beautiful_soul_aw11.m4v" type='video/mp4' /> <source src="beautiful_soul_aw11.ogv" type='video/ogg' /> <source src="beautiful_soul_aw11.webm" type='video/webm' /> </video> 

When I do phpinfo , I see that the server is ignoring my gzip shutdown request.

I checked with curl and the file is being processed as the correct type:

 curl -I http://www.beautiful-soul.co.uk/collections/beautiful_soul_aw11.ogv HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2011 18:44:03 GMT Server: Apache/2 Last-Modified: Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:44:49 GMT ETag: "36976a8-4aba873976640" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 57243304 Content-Type: video/ogg 

When I browse a page and get page information, it shows this:

 Location: http://www.beautiful-soul.co.uk/collections/beautiful_soul_aw11.ogv Type: video/ogg Size: 8 KB (8192 bytes) Dimensions: 0px × 0px Associated Text: AC_FL_RunContent(... 

I do not know why.

• My .htaccess file will be ignored and gzip will be included.
• Why the OGV file was found, but it is loaded only in bytes and has no parameters.

Answer 1

Yes, sorry for the late reply. I reinstalled / updated firefox. This was decided by choosing the ogg version.

 <video width="720" height="405" preload controls autoplay > <source src="beautiful_soul_aw111.mp4" type='video/mp4' /> <source src="beautiful_soul_aw11.m4v" type='video/mp4' /> <!--<source src="beautiful_soul_aw11.ogv" type='video/ogg' />--> <source src="beautiful_soul_aw11.webm" type='video/webm' /> </video> 

It plays perfectly in all browsers.

thanks
