Use the new URL tag. It supports mp4, ogg, webm, and gifv extensions. Not all browsers support all of these, nor every encoding.
The .gifv extension is not a valid HTML 5 video property. No browser supports the .gifv extension as a valid HTML 5 media type. Run this on any browser:
https://jsfiddle.net/Lb1ndj4L/For example, this url:
http://i.imgur.com/kfrpYVc.gifvThe parser will match the .gifv extension and it will become unsupported:
Code
<video width="560" height="315" controls="" src="http://i.imgur.com/kfrpYV5c.gifv"></video>
Some solutions:
1) Replace the .gifv extension to .webm while parsing.
2) Don't match the .gifv as a valid media type extension
