Hello;

Following are the links to a very simple HTML page for testing the use of VideoJS & MP4 video. It is working on all browsers other than Internet Explorer 9 (HTML5 compatible) on one server:

This page (and movie) hosted on Godaddy does not let me play the movie:
http://www.kosmos-productions.com/videoMontana.html

The same page hosted on 1&1 let me play the movie:
http://www.sbaud.com/mockup/video_MontanaSbaud.html

Do you know what could be the problem?
Do I need to check some settings on Godaddy server in order for that MP4 movie to play in IE9?

I appreciate your feedback,

David

    As soon as I changed preload from "auto" to "none" it started working perfectly in IE. I also have the .htaccess file modified with the right file types.

    After spending 3 days trying to figure out why my video wasn't playing in IE9, I realized that it would only play if compatibilty mode was enabled.

    I found this script at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7542456/how-do-i-force-compatibi...

    and it worked.

    Hope this helps someone else.

    Hi all!

    I have the same issue,

    all my vids (in the html 5 video tag) play fine on my 1&1 server, but as soon as I uploaded it to my clients server IE9 won´t play any of the videos, in Chrome only one of the vids plays on my clients server...
    How the hell can that be?

    If anyone has any suggestion, please let me know, help would be really appreciated...

    Take care and thank you!
