I have a Joomla! site that I need to embed a WMV video in it. I want it to be playable.
I have AllVideos Joomla! Plugin installed and it has the function to play WMV files, but when I try to play it there is a sign that I have to install Microsoft Silverlight. Now, for me that isn't a big problem, but I do not want to make my visitors install it just to watch a video.
So, if any of you have a solution to embed it using a Joomla! extension or an HTML/HTML5 solution, I would be extremely grateful.
You need to transcode your videos from WMV to an open format suitable to be played by the browser without a plugin. WMV is a proprietary format, you'd be better off transcoding the videos to webM, OGG or MP4 even. Here is the list of formats supported by Firefox.
To transcode you can either have a batch script server side or you can use a service like Kaltura with their Joomla extension.
I am using videogular for audio and video player. It is not supporting flac files. I s there any way to run flac files in videogular.Any help will be appreciated.Thanks in advance
Videogular doesn't have support for flac files.
The best approach is to write a plugin using FLAC.js
Is there any crossbrowser solution for playing flac? (or is it possible in theory to make one)
I'm searching for a player that can handle MP4, H263, MP3/MP4A/OGG, WEBM, OGGV and.. FLV. It's supposed to run only on chrome so it supports the html5 format. I tried video.js but it doesn't play FLV. Are there any players (especially free) that can handle all formats? I'd prefer to have to change only a skin of html.
There are many players available for the same but I guess there are some which support all the extensions mentioned..
here are some of them

It looks like the browser on a Blackberry doesn't support either HTML 5 or Flash...
What's the best format to display video in it?
Thanks
BrowserSession is useful to paly video and audio formats in Blackberry.Visit following
links useful for you.
BlackBerry - Play mp4 video from remote server.
If you need information about Browser session the following link might help you.
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/developers/deliverables/11844/Browser_session_management_438294_11.jsp
You would use the object tag e.g.
<object data=FILENAME type=MIMETYPE>
You can see the supported video formats on different phones here (PDF).

Latest version of blackberry (from 6.0). but however it is not that intelligent to play videos efficiently.
Is your application using native code ? If yes, then go for manual player or invoke default browser which has capability to play videos. I have done the same way for you tube videos.
I have a task ahead of me that I do not know the easiest way to address. Currently I am building out an admin section in Symfony for a client and she would like to upload video. She has the capability of conversion and will use the format I specify but I just do not know what the best on is for cross browser compatibility. I think .mov seems pretty good but I do not know. I would like simple embed code and to swap out the video src with js. Any and all help appreciated as always.
Thank you in advance,

I think currently the best option is H264 in a mp4-container with Flash based video player such as

If you want use HTML5 video I would suggest that you use some flash hybrid to get maximum browser support
