I am trying to play a webm video on my page using Firefox. This is what my code looks like (I've removed the actual amazon s3 video path below, but these videos play fine when I open them directly in the browser):

<video controls>
   <source src="https://..s3.amazonaws.com/video/video_path/145/Untitled.webm" class="339" id="video_339" type="video/webm">
   <source src="https://..s3.amazonaws.com/video/video_path/145/Untitled.mp4" class="339" id="video_339" type="video/mp4">
</video>

In my Firefox console, I'm getting the error 

HTTP "Content-Type" of "video/quicktime" is not supported. Load of media resource https://..s3.amazonaws.com/video/video_path/145/Untitled.webm failed. @ http://0.0.0.0:3000/projects/10/steps

Why is it recognizing the webm video as a quicktime video?

    I've found that it's because on Amazon S3, the content type is automatically set as video/quicktime. Is there a way to change this default? – scientiffic Oct 22 '13 at 21:43

    thanks, it turns out it's an issue with carrierwave not setting the right content type. – scientiffic Oct 23 '13 at 03:39
