Show video on home page - get 403 forbidden

[Cath]

I'm using ZC 2.01 and the Fluorspar template. No other plugins.

I'd like to show a video on the home page. This is the code I'm using:

<video>
<source src="/images/videos/video1.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
<img src="/images/clothing/dress1.jpg">

in includes\languages\english\html_includes\define_main_page.php

The image was simply a test to make sure my path's okay - the image displayed fine.

In the browser inspector, I get "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden)".

There's nothing in the log file.

Thanks in advance

In the images folder there is a .htaccess file which restricts the file types that the server will return:

# but now allow just *certain* necessary files:
<FilesMatch "(?i).*\.(jpe?g|gif|webp|png|svgz?)$">

You need to add the mp4 file extension to that list.

Perfect! Thank you
