If you haven't already you have to make sure that URL paths are absolute or relative to the .manifest and not the actual webpage.

There is also a limit to the size of the actual component that you are trying to cache currently at 4MB.

The total cache limit is 5MB.

I'm also pretty sure you can not cache audio and video files.
