[Html 5 Video Not Working In All Browsers!]

HTML5 is not the official language yet, not until after 2014 most likely.

 

Although HTML5 is supported by most browsers, that does not mean every possible use of HTML 5 is supported as it is still in development.

 

So it is quite possible that some commands/tags/variables in HTML5 for video is not supported by all browsers, or that as wickham seems to suggest, some file formats or Codecs are not yet supported. It may even be an issue beyond HTML5 along that lines that a browser may not support a Codec.

 

Just something to keep in mind, I do not know for sure one way or the other, but there are many Codecs out there and I just thought of it when seeing the ".ogg" format mentioned in the code above. I have nothing on my PC that will play that format.

 

I've found that certain versions of the browsers are compatible with these codecs and but the same browser on a different platform isn't. Should I just avoid using HTML 5 to run this video? I want it to work on all browsers, but this seems to be a very tedious issue and i need something that works universally now.

Will this Safari tutorial help?

http://developer.apple.com/library/safari/#documentation/AudioVideo/Conceptual/Using_HTML5_Audio_Video/AudioandVideoTagBasics/AudioandVideoTagBasics.html

You have used

<source src="serendipity_libtheora_008.ogv" type="video/ogg" />
<source src="serendipity.m4v" type="video/mp4" /> 

 

I use .oggv type="video.ogg" and I haven't noticed a problem, but I haven't used .m4v I just use .mp4 but you may be correct.

 

This page is for Safari

This page is for all browsers

Thanks I'll take a look at this and send feedback if it helped resolved the issue!!

[Html 5 Video Not Working In All Browsers!]

Hi My name is Deb, and I'm having a very difficult time trying to get this video to work on all platforms. I've converted the video to .webm .ogg /.ogv .mp4 and .m4v. But it's still not showing up in safari on either the mac or pc platform, loading slowly in firefox on both, and not showing up at all in chrome. Here's the code i'm using:

 

<video width="1000" height="768" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;" autoplay preload="auto" poster="shot0007.jpg">

<source src="serendipity.mp4" type="video/mp4" />

<source src="serendipity_VP8.webm" type="video/webm" />

<source src="serendipity_libtheora_008.ogv" type="video/ogg" />

<source src="serendipity.m4v" type="video/mp4" />

</video>
