Description
In media.php on line 1080, there is no such thing as video/m4v mime type that can be used in the video tag. This essentially breaks all .m4v files from showing up, regardless of the mime type its delivered with. This should be changed to either video/x-m4v (non standard, but Apple recommended) or more appropriately the standards recommended mime video/mp4.
Apple's .m4v files are essentially mp4 encodes wrapped with a different file extension.

This is the video I'm testing with.

video/m4v is an alias. No other feedback from reporter in 8 months... closing.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using

MediaElement checks for video/m4v - the video tag is just a container for whatever ME is going to do to it. I just downloaded your video, it works for me... http://cl.ly/image/0r0w0X2C0A17
