.flv player for mobile browser - html

In my website there is video uploading facility. When User uploads video , My code convert the video format from (mp4,wmv,3gp,avi) to .flv format after compressing video size.
on desktop format, everything is working fine. But on mobile browser I haven't get an good player for playing .flv files in all browsers. Can somebody will help me to find a free .flv player support all mobile browser. I hjave searched on google and doesn't find any thing useful . I have tried with html5 player, but it doesn't work for .flv files. I also tried with object player, which is not running in mobile browser.
Another one thing, downloadig .flv video wll be played in mobile or not?

A mobile device will want to play an MP4 file. It won't know how to play a FLV file (unless the FLV file is really an MP4 file in disguise, which happens sometimes). The solution is for your website to transcode to MP4, not to FLV. If you have a desktop website solution that already plays FLV files, it's probably Flash-based, and it should be able to play MP4 files just as well.

Flash video working on one of two sites in Chrome

I am developing a pair of websites (podyplomie.pl and magwet.pl).
On both of them we have added a video player (JWPlayer).
I am almost sure flash player on both of them was working in the beginnig but now I can play the video (in flash) only on one of the sites (podyplomie.pl).
The other site is missing flash player in the list of navigator.plugins. Both sites are very similar so it's quite strange that one of them 'contains' the flash player and the second doesn't.
Has anyone got an idea what is wrong ?
The video urls are eg:
Video on magwet.pl
Video on podyplomie.pl
You don't have any Flash video (.FLV). Your videos are in .MP4 format. Chrome browser can play MP4 with it's own decoding engine (no need for plugins like Flash). JW Player is seeing MP4 given as video source so it talks to browser not plugin...
PS: To force Flash plugin usage then provide an .flv file or rtmp:// link.

real media player video and audio files. (.rm and .ram) used in html code not working in current browser

I have a code containing real media player video and audio files. (.rm and .ram). They are not working in browsers. Can you please suggest a solution. The code contains an embed tag which has a .rpm file in src. The .rpm file contains path to a .smi file which contains the .rm video and audio files to be played on clicking a button in browser. But this is not working as it should.
Thanks.
Convert the RealMedia files to a modern format, such as MP3 for audio files, or MPEG4 for video files.
RealMedia has been effectively obsolete for the last five to ten years (depending on how you define "obsolete"), and is no longer playable in any modern web browser.

.webm video file isn't working in Firefox

I'm currently working on building a website that has full page videos as backgrounds. The plan is to make a play button on top of the video that allows the user to watch the full-length piece with sound (embedded from Vimeo). I am running FullPage.js by Alvaro Trigo.
I am converting my video using VLC player from an Apple ProRes .MOV file. I create two web versions, an mp4 (h.264) for safari and a webm (vP8) for Chrome/Firefox.
For some reason I cant get the WebM video file to work in Firefox. It loads just fine in Chrome. When I try to open the file (from the server) it says "Video cannot be played because the file is corrupt".
I set up the MIME files on my server (I use BlueHost) and the content type says it is a video/webm but still no luck. Is this a Firefox issue or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

How is this Flash video playable on mobile devices [using JWPlayer]?

I'm trying to make my anime-streaming website FLV videos playable on mobile device, so I changed the technology I'm using from flash to HTML5 MP4, webM and OGG.
But while I'm surfing this site - which is using jwPlayer - from my Android device:
Here
I found that the video is working well although it is using FLV?
Can anyone explain how this could happen?
It is a feature of JWplayer. It will detect when Flash is not supported and switch to HTML5.
This is from their website:
JW Player is tested on the world’s most popular desktop browsers to
ensure the best playback experience for your viewers. From IE8 to the
latest version of Chrome, on Windows and OS X we ensure that any user
can watch your content. JW Player always selects the best playback
mode for your media behind the scenes.

I found that the video is working well although it is using FLV ?!
Please, can anyone explain how could this happen ?
Are you saying FLV because it is Flash? Did you know Flash itself can play MP4 files anyway? Looking at the source code I see MP4 video files provided so I think they are just using Flash Player app to play MP4 files where plugin is available or else then using HTML5 for mobile etc.
Test by disabling Flash Plugin in mobile browser settings, you should now see an HTML5 player instead for handling exact same file that Flash app was playing.
So to answer : How is this Flash video playable on mobile devices [using JWPlayer]?
You have a mobile with Flash Plugin installed and you visited a page that had a video player app made with Flash to play some MP4 files. Your mobile is flash capable so it worked and you watched some MP4 file using a Flash decoder instead of an HTML5 decoder.

Play video chunks in googletv with chrome

I am currently working on a web application for video processing. Here is the situation:
I have a mp4 h264 video as input, I split the video in multiple avi files. Each avi file is processed individually generating another avi file as an output which is immediately encoded back to h264 and is now ready to be displayed in my web application.
The problem is that in need to play those video chunks as if they were a single video but I have not been able to accomplish that in a proper way. I have tried the following solutions without having the expected results:
JW Player: Each time a chunk is played, the player goes black and as far as I know it is not plausible to pause it on the last frame
Flowplayer: Videos wont reproduce on googletv's chrome browser
HTML5 video tag: Behaves extrangely on googletv's chrome browser not playing the chunks completely when the src attribute changes and no playing at all less-than-1-second-chunks (It works fine on linux)
Any Ideas?
