Hi Charles
My only thought is that you might need to add http:// to the front of your video URL. Can you try this and let me know.

Hi Greg, I tried it like this, still just a black image with play button.

I can view this same file on my desktop without any problem.

This might have something to do with your web host blocking video hosting. There are some hosts that I know of that do this.

Hi. I have the same problem but my Hosting company lets me host my own videos.
Audio is working perfectly, but no picture.
