Why does my video only play sound and no video? - html

Just wondering if anyone can tell me hy this is happening. When I play the video I can hear the audio but the video doesn't show. Heres my code, im a beginner
<video id = "videoplayer" width ="480" height = "270" poster = "../images/video.jpg" controls>
<source src = "../media/overwatch.mp4">
<video>

Try to use this default snippet - I think you missed the type of the video and check the src!
For more info read this.
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">

Video doesn't play on site but it does somewhere else

I'm working on a website with a HTML5 video tag. The video doesn't play on the website. But if I test it somewhere else, it plays without a problem.

My code is here:
<video class="video-splash__video" width="720" height="405" autoplay="" poster="http://carflow-staging.houston-1.hybridmedia.be/wp-content/themes/framework_wp/img/videoCarflowBackground.png">

HTML5 Video Autoplay Loop - Unwanted small delay

I have a question about looping MP4's. I have some small MP4 files that have to keep looping (which works great with "autoplay loop". However, after each play, there seems to be a very short delay before it plays again. Is there a way to avoid this? My code is as follows:
<div align="center">
<video autoplay loop class="img-responsive">
<source src="vid/01.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="vid/01.webm" type="video/webm">
</video>
</div>
With poster attitude you can show a thumbnail before it starts.
<video controls poster="/images/w3html5.gif">
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">

dynamic image background of html5 video

I am using video tag of HTML5. But before playing the video it shows the very first second of the video as the image; however, that image is solid black for my case; so I would like to know if I can have the default image (before hitting the play button) from somewhere of the middle of the video without using a static poster for all videos. I like to have images which will be a part of that video, I mean dynamic image as a background.
Any suggestions will help me a lot..!!
You need to generate thumbnails for your videos and use the thumbnail images using the poster attribute of the HTML5 video Tag.
<video width="320" height="240" poster="/images/w3html5.gif" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.

You can use ffmpeg to generate thumbnails at any timeline from your videos.
You can Use this poster tag
<video width="320" height="240" poster="/images/w3html5.gif" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.

how to change a preview for html5 video?

how to change a preview for html5 video?
I need to show custom image, when user clicks on it video is playing.
<video controls="controls">
<source src="1.webm" type="video/webm">
<source src="1.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
add poster attribut to video tag...
<video controls="controls" poster="url_to_img.jpg">
<source src="1.webm" type="video/webm">
<source src="1.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
to set the preview of the HTML5 video you must know about poster attribute in video tag.
So it should look something like this
<video width=blah height=blah poster=blah >
