Facebook video share

I'm trying to share a video via sharer url (https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fsirius.isebox.net%2Fmichal%2Ftest-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test-test%3Fdefault%3Dg5s3e2)

I can't get the video to play in facebook. When I debug using FB's open graph debugger, I get this strange error:

"Share has playable media but will not play inline because it would cause a mixed content warning if embedded. Add a secure_src or make the video src secure to fix this."

I have no idea where to add the secure_src to the header. Notice that og:video:secure_url is already present

Thanks

This is working now, honestly I have no idea why it wouldn't work before. Here's my bit of meta goodness that works:

<meta property="og:video:url" content="http://domain.tld/flv.flv">
<meta property="og:video:secure_url" content="https://domain.tld/flv.flv">
<meta property="og:video:width" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:height" content="300" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash" />

<meta property="og:video:url" content="http://domain.tld/mp4.mp4">
<meta property="og:video:secure_url" content="https://domain.tld/mp4.mp4">
<meta property="og:video:width" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:height" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="video/mp4" />

<meta property="og:video:url" content="http://domain.tld/mp4.mp4">
<meta property="og:video:secure_url" content="https://domain.tld//mp4.mp4">
<meta property="og:video:width" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:height" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="text/html" />

You should load the video over HTTPS protocol, the mixed content warning means that your video is loading via HTTP. You can provide your video using two url tags (secure and non-secure).
