In reality, the videos are decoded and played by the browsers themselves and we just add a wrapper to the browser's video player. So, we should always adapt to the browser's restrictions.

I doubt the video codec used by your video file is not compatible with the web browsers.

Solution:
Kindly re-encode your video file using Handbrake handbrake.fr/ (Free) tool. Then upload the re-encoded file.

Recommended CODECs are,
Video: H264
Audio: AAC  
Output Format: MP4

Handbrake is a FREE encoder which you can use to re-encode your videos. Kindly refer to the "Encoding H.264 Video with HandBrake" section in diveintohtml5.info/video.html for more details.

For most advanced usage, please check vimeo.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/224978308-HandBrake
and

Hope this solves your issue.
