The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

There is a good chance your webserver is not configured to serve mp4 files. You can add the mime type to your server.

Here you can read how to do this in windows IIS 7 http://technet.microsoft.com/nl-nl/library/cc753281(v=ws.10).aspx

addition, a better link maybe: http://blogs.iis.net/bills/archive/2008/03/25/how-to-add-mime-types-with-iis7-web-config.aspx

Some hostingproviders place another .htaccess file deep somewhere in your media library, which in my case contained this:

<Files *.php>
deny from all
</Files>

Removing this file did the trick for me.

Docs: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authz_host.html#Deny

Reasons for this error are: 1. File may not be in the specified location. 2. The server may not recognize the specified type of file.
