MP4 video upload container only

Hi,
I have a home-made mp4 embedded in a page. It works perfectly on the desktop. But when uploaded, there is no content. The video ‘casing’ is there, but nothing happens.
I have used a commercial video only yesterday, and that worked fine.
Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

Your browser does not support the video tag.

I’ve tried using Firefox, Chrome and Safari, but none seem to work.
The issue can be seen here: https://fcgc.org.au/videotest/index.htm

Thanks in advance

If I call the cow stroll directly. I get this (nice):

However if I do the training, I get this (no nice):

I can replicate above by calling an non existing cow trolls mp4

Conclusion.

I think “training.mp4” does not exist or is not being found. Check your server. I don’t think is a browser problem.

Thank you so much.
I checked the server and it is definitely there. However, the stroll video is there as an ‘audio/x-generic’ whereras the training video is there as a text/x-generic. Not sure how this happens.
Do you know is there is anyway to convert it, or should it be saved in a different format.

Thanks.

For what I research on the internet when uploading if the case is wrong, it screw up the format.

Change “training.MP4” to “training.mp4” and upload again.

That’s exactly what it was.

Thank you very very much.
