I'm looking for a video player that supports RTSP that has working activex controls for IE, Firefox and Chrome.
VLC Player works, however, I cannot get Chrome or IE to detect the activex and have a visitor download the controller if they do not have it.
I was able to get Firefox and IE to work with Quicktime, but not Chrome. WMP doesn't seem to like RTSP, or I'm doing it wrong.
Any advice would greatly be appreciated.
Sample of my VLC code:
<object classid='clsid:9BE31822-FDAD-461B-AD51-BE1D1C159921' codebase='http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/last/win32/axvlc.cab' width='440' height='260'>
<param name='movie' value='rtsp://xxx/mpeg4/ch1/main/av_stream'>
<embed type='application/x-vlc-plugin' pluginspage='http://www.videolan.org' width='440' height='260' target='rtsp://xxx/mpeg4/ch1/main/av_stream'>
</object>

The src of iframe is a URL to a video. Every time when the page is loaded, it asked me whether to save or open the video. But the video show well on firefox and chrome. When the URL points to video on youtube, it works too. Anyone has the same problem? My IE is 11. But it should work on most IE versions.

Your browser does not support the audio element.

I have used following object tag for embed windows media player on web page to play video.

at first time the player is not visible. after navigate the window the player is getting activate. Check for Demo and the Demo code.
Please suggest to activate the player at execution time.
its working fine in firefox latest edition thing is when you use code like above to embed browser use media plugins installed in system to display media player and for video playback.
For example in my system i have vlc installed when i launch your demo in firefox it shows vlc media player and played your video smoothly.
I’m having a problem getting HTML5 to work in IE9. It showed up as a failure to execute the video tag. It works fine in Firefox, Opera and Safari but I just got a blank screen in IE. This is the code:
<video width="320" height="240" controls="controls">
<source src="video1.mp4" type="video/mp4"/>
<source src="video1.ogg" type="video/ogg"/>
</video>
Then I ran the HTML5 compatibility test at http://html5test.com and I also got a blank screen in IE, so it’s more than the video tag that’s at issue.
Then I tried running an .mp4 sample video online ( http://archive.org/details/Pbtestfilemp4videotestmp4 ) - it does not run within the browser, but opens in VLC player! In Firefox, Opera and Safari, it runs in the browser.
I’ve reinstalled IE – no good. When I check the IE version, it says Internet Explorer 9, but after "Version:", there's a blank.
Any ideas?
I had a similar issue and it turned out that my server wasn't returning the correct MIME type for the video object. Check out this guy's info - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/thebeebs/archive/2011/07/20/html5-video-not-working-in-ie9-some-tips-to-debug.aspx
I just added this code to my .htaccess file and it worked immediately -
AddType video/mp4 .mp4
use [HTML5Shiv] to enable HTML5 tag for Internet Explorer. And add WebM video format to the sources
I am trying to play video on chrome using video tag (html5) this video is uploaded on wowza media server and its run on only mac in safari, it does'nt play on windows and even on chrome on mac, what can i do for playing video on chrome on windows , my code is

<source src="http://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4:GettingStarted.mov/playlist.m3u8" />
</video>
i dont want to use flash to play video.
You'll have to use a different format for other browsers that don't support HLS. I have not seen this work with Wowza and browsers' video tag, but there is an example using JwPlayer - http://developer.longtailvideo.com/player/trunk/fl5/js/test/examples/single_mp4.html. Note that this does fall back to flash for Firefox and Opera.
