title: HTML5 video path confusion
body: <p>I have been playing with Video.js and have run into a problem with the example provided.</p>
  
  <p>When specifying an MP4 (h264) video, using the html5 video element, there is some confusion.</p>
  
  <p>When I use (absolute):</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;source src="C:\&lt;filsystempath&gt;\Media\oceans-clip.mp4" type='video/mp4' /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The video is displayed, no problem. But when I use:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;source src="@Url.Content("~/Media/oceans-clip.mp4")" type='video/mp4' /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The video is not displayed. I would conclude that the using a relative path is the problem but when using an ogv video like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;source src="@Url.Content("~/Media/oceans-clip.ogv")" type='video/ogg' /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It works fine.</p>
  
  <p>One more annoyance - When the video is used for flash fallback, it works. </p>
  
  <p>I am using ASP.MVC and video.js. I am using localhost to debug.</p>
  
  <p>Full video tag -</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;video id="example_video_1" class="video-js vjs-default-skin"
     controls preload="auto" width="640" height="264"
     poster="http://video-js.zencoder.com/oceans-clip.png"
     data-setup='{"example_option":true}'&gt;
  &lt;source src="@Url.Content("~/Media/oceans-clip.ogv")" type='video/ogg' /&gt; -- Works
  &lt;source src="C:\&lt;filesystempath&gt;\oceans-clip.mp4" type='video/mp4' /&gt; -- Works
  &lt;source src="@Url.Content("~/Media/oceans-clip.mp4")" type='video/mp4' /&gt; -- Doesn't work
  &lt;source src="http://video-js.zencoder.com/oceans-clip.webm" type='video/webm' /&gt;
  &lt;/video&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The question is: Why will the video play with an absolute path but not a relative one?</p>
