I have many .webm videos on my localhost when i’m trying to render it with popcorn.js they dont work until i use a video store on the net!
I also tried with the official video from the popcorn.js homepage, localhost they dont work but calling it with an external url make it working!

    Did you try http://127.0.0.1 as well instead of http://localhost?

    If it’s not working you can still edit your hosts file if you’re under Windows.

    The hosts file can be found here: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

    Add the following line to the end of the file:

    127.0.0.1 mycustomdomain

    Now try http://mycustomdomain/

    Edit all your .webm links too to reflect the new address, eg.: http://mycustomdomain/test.webm or http://127.0.0.1/test.webm
