There can be a few reasons why the video does not show up on Chrome and Firefox when using the provided embed code in Webflow. Here are a few possible causes and solutions:

Compatibility issues: Ensure that the embed code you are using is compatible with both Chrome and Firefox. Different browsers may have different requirements for video playback. Double-check that the embed code you are using is supported by both browsers.
Outdated browser or plugins: Make sure you are using the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox. Outdated browsers or plugins may not support certain video formats or playback methods. Update your browsers and plugins to the latest versions and try again.
Corrupt or improper embed code: Sometimes, the embed code itself may be incorrect or incomplete. Check if there are any errors or typos in the embed code you are using. Use a reliable source or provider to generate the embed code, ensuring that it is formatted correctly.
Content Security Policy (CSP) restrictions: Check if your website has any Content Security Policy (CSP) restrictions in place. CSP is a security feature that controls which external resources can be loaded on a webpage. If the CSP is blocking the video playback or the source of the embed code, you will need to modify the CSP settings to allow it.
Video hosting platform restrictions: Some video hosting platforms have specific requirements or restrictions for embedding videos on websites. Make sure you are following the guidelines provided by the video hosting platform. For example, some platforms may require you to enable embedding or set specific permissions for embedding on certain domains.
Browser extensions or ad-blockers: Certain browser extensions or ad-blockers may interfere with video playback or block video content. Try disabling any extensions or ad-blockers temporarily to see if they are causing the issue.

By troubleshooting these possible causes, you should be able to determine why the video is not showing up on Chrome and Firefox when using the provided embed code in Webflow and find a suitable solution.
