Rewrite url path to new path using .htaccess

in my htaccess file, i have this, that is supposed to remove the index.php? from the path and make the path look like this: video/:AccountId/:recordId however something isnt working correctly. it doesnt re-write anymore and i can only make the url work by having the index.php? tag in it, so instead it looks like: video/index.php?/:AccountId/:recordId

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  # !IMPORTANT! Set your RewriteBase here and don't forget trailing and leading
  #  slashes.
  # If your page resides at
  #  http://www.example.com/mypage/test1
  # then use
  # RewriteBase /mypage/test1/
  RewriteBase /video
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

I cant just remove it because the clients already have the video/:AccountId/:recordId i dont want to have to email blast them to change something on their end to make this work, i was hoping too that maybe someone would know how to redirect that url to the one that includes the index.php? because overall i dont care that its there or not, its a hold over from previous teams.

With your shown samples, please try following htaccess rules file. Make sure your htaccess file is present along with video OR first level of URL folder, also make sure index.php is present inside that folder eg: `.htaccess and video are existing together AND index.php is inside video folder).

Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)/(.*)/?$ /$1/index.php?/$2/$3 [QSA,L]
