background videos not playing when hosted on webserver #2179

Hi,
I have a presentation that makes use of background videos. I just finished the presentation and everything works fine when run locally by just opening the .html file. However when uploading this to an apache2 webserver the background images won't work.
I'm not sure if this is an issue with my webserver configuration (which is default of a fresh apache 2 installation) or if this has to do with reveal.js. itself. I'm using mp4 videos.

Best,
stephan

Back in days when I was using windows this was common as windows has case-insensitive filesystem.
Please check that your webserver does serve the video by downloading it and check the case sensitivity too.

I have this problem here too, and it's definitely not because the webserver can't find the files.

@supersambo and @bohdantrotsenko : Do you reference the video by full url like http://... or relative like somefolder/somevideo.mp4. Is the video hosted on an https or http webserver? There might be a problem with mixed content, when hosting the presentation and video on different sites. If one uses http and the other https. - Just an idea.
