<embed src="vilberg.com/videos/images/stories/videos/CubanFamily.mp4"
pluginspage="www.apple.com/quicktime/download/"
scale="tofit" kioskmode="False"
qtsrc="vilberg.com/videos/images/stories/videos/CubanFamily.mov"
cache="False" style="width:400px; height:323px;" controller="True"
type="video/quicktime" autoplay="False" /></object></noscript>
</div>
<!-- JW AllVideos Plugin (v2.4) ends here -->
My concern is the qtsrc value that references a file of type mov instead of mp4. There is no mov file, just the mp4.
Does that mean I have to have two versions of the file, or is there a bug in the code, or am I missing something else?
Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.

I had the same problem so I fixed it myself.I am having trouble with mp4 videos. They work in Internet Explorer, but not in anything else. In Firefox the embedded code for {mp4}CubanFamily{/mp4} looks like this.

Here is how it's done...
* BEFORE doing this, backup the mambots/content/plugin_jw_allvideos.php file in case you make a mistake:
** The pound signs "#" and the information after on the same lines are used to denote instructions (this is the layout of mods in phpbb, so I use it here because I like the layout).
#
[ OPEN (in a text editor) ]
#
mambots/content/plugin_jw_allvideos.php
#
#
[ FIND ]
#
<embed src=\"$mosConfig_live_site/".$video_folder."***code***.mp4\" pluginspage=\"www.apple.com/quicktime/download/\" scale=\"tofit\" kioskmode=\"False\" qtsrc=\"$mosConfig_live_site/".$video_folder."***code***.mov\" cache=\"False\" style=\"".$width." ".$height."\" controller=\"True\" type=\"video/quicktime\" autoplay=\"False\" />", "#{mp4}(.*?){/mp4}#s"),
#
#
[ REPLACE WITH ]
#
<embed src=\"$mosConfig_live_site/".$video_folder."***code***.mp4\" pluginspage=\"www.apple.com/quicktime/download/\" scale=\"tofit\" kioskmode=\"False\" qtsrc=\"$mosConfig_live_site/".$video_folder."***code***.mp4\" cache=\"False\" style=\"".$width." ".$height."\" controller=\"True\" type=\"video/quicktime\" autoplay=\"False\" />", "#{mp4}(.*?){/mp4}#s"),
#
#
[ SAVE AND CLOSE ]
#
#
#
[ UPLOAD SAVED FILE ]
Enjoy!
