    I’m working off of a xampp localhost. I have the html5 video in my header using the Weaver II Pro theme. It shows up on every page.

    But, tonight I changed the permalinks to host name and the video disappeard. I get the message “No video with supported format and MIME type found.”

    Except the video still works properly on the home page. The one page where the permalink didn’t change.

    Not entirely sure I understand what you changed – are your videos now on an actual host and not your xampp localhost? If so, try modifying your htaccess file to make sure your host is serving the files correctly as per this link: http://blog.nosecreekweb.ca/wordpress/reliable-html5-video-made-easy/#hosting-your-video

    Otherwise, have you double checked to make sure that your video sources are correct?

    No, I’m still on xampp localhost. The only thing I did was I changed the permalinks to post name.

    I just now changed permalinks back to default and the video displays properly on all pages.

    Thing is, I want the post name permalinks.

    So, I changed them back and the video is gone again. Except for the homepage where the link didn’t change.

    Wierd. I don’t see how that should affect the plugin at all. I use post name permalinks all the time without issue. Are you using custom post types or just posts and pages?

    All my pages are flat.

    Well, this issue kind of resolved itself when I realized it was probably not a great idea to have that video load on every page anyway.

    So, I set a feature in Weaver II pro where this code would only be added to the home page header and be hidden on the other pages.

    Since the video always displayed on the home page anyway, the problem was solved.
