I need video player for play M2T format, streaming come from live camera, i need to show video from browser, now i can see it with VLC, any ideas?
I have created a webm video file with transparency with ffmpeg out of a series of png files. Then I add the audio track again in ffmpeg (I have tried both the opus and vorbis codecs). When I play it in the Movies & TV app it plays just fine (audio and video). In windows media player only the video plays. In html (inside a video tag) the video will play if it is set to 'muted' but if it is not muted it doesn't play.
I am not sure what is going on. Does anyone have any insights. Do I need to run the audio from a seperate file?
Thanks, Kate
We are working with a development company to create a program that records videos and then uploads them to a server. Then, on our website, users should be able to view the videos.
Here's the issue. As far as I understand it, .MP4 is the only video file format that can be played in any browser. However, the other development company claims that they will deliver the videos as .MKV video files and then all we have to do on our website is re-wrap the videos or something so they will be playable. I do not understand how that works, and they were being very condescending when I asked for clarification.
The videos have to be able to be played in any browser, and I would rather not have to use any special plugins to convert the videos before playing them.
Please help me understand what they expect me to do.
MP4 and MKV are file formats or wrappers that hold multiple media streams (typically audio and video). The wrapper (MP4 or MKV) tells you very little about the actual audio or video format.
Common combinations are MP4 with AVC video and AAC audio or MKV with VP9 video and Vorbis audio. But you could also do MKV with AVC and AAC.
Rewrapping MKV (AVC/AAC) into MP4 (AVC/AAC) is pretty straight forward and does not require a transcode.
I'd guess that MP4 with AVC video and AAC audio is likely the best cross platform combination at this time.
But delivering video over the internet to a browser with varying available bandwidth - can be tricky and may required multiple different quality levels of the same content.
Are there any way to capture only playing video from flash player to another flash player or html5 video player? (for example: embed youtube player to custom player with different controls and design)
How can I do it?
You can do this with the Youtube API ... Specifically, you embed a "chromeless" youtube player in your app. Then you can add your own Flash or HTML UI to control playback.
It's possible other video services allow this. You just need to check their API documentation to see if it's possible.
i am playing mp3 file in my web with google player :
http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3523697345-audio-player.swf
and i can't playing m4a files with this player too.
there is any way to play m4a files with this player too? or there is another player to play m4a files in my browser?
this is how i am using the player:
<embed type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" flashvars=\"audioUrl=songUrl&autoPlay=true\" src=\"http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3523697345-audio-player.swf\" width=\"400\" height=\"27\" quality=\"best\"></embed>
According to this, this is a bit of a complex issue: Flash (the technology your audio player, and most others on the web currently, is based on) is able to play MPEG-4 content, but only when declaring the content video, not audio. Why this is, I have no idea.
You may be able to play M4A sound files if you can find a Flash video player that suits your needs. Alternatively, consider using HTML 5 Audio.
Update: jPlayer, a jQuery/Flash/HTML5-Based audio player, claims to be able to play MPEG-4 Audio content. You should be able to use that.
