I don't know why, but a video doesn't play on Firefox. This is the code:

<video id="video-element" preload="auto" loop="loop" autoplay="true" class="bg-video" data-video-width="1280" data-video-height="720">
   <source src="video.webm" type="video/webm"></source>
   <source src="video.ogv" type="video/ogg"></source>
   <source src="video.mp4" type="video/mp4"></source>
  Your browser does not support the <code>video</code> element.
</video>

I have all the formats, I used http://firefogg.org for that. When I try it on local computer, it works, but on the server doesn't.

Could anyone explain the problem, please?

Strange, but the code is not shown. Should I write it in another format?

Anyways, I made a screenshot.

Is the server configured to send this file with a correct MIME type?

Does it work if you open the URL of a WebM or Ogg movie via the location bar?
