I can I play a YouTube video in my site using HTML 5 <video> controls?
I am able to run the video for MP4, ogg format,
<video width="710" height="423" controls>
<source src="testvideo.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
but how to run teh video where the source is from youtube
ex:
<video width="710" height="423" controls>
<source src="https://www.youtube.com/v/<youtube video id>?enablejsapi=1&rel=0&fs=1" type="????"></source>
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
I provided the valid source and given type as video/youtube, but got the error as No video with supported format and MIME type found
Please let me know if you anybody have any input
Thanks, Sharath
if your tag
<youtube video id>
produces the 11 character code such as for this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2ByLmLnYJ8
the 11 character code would be t2ByLmLnYJ8
then I think you should try
<iframe width="710" height="423"
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/<youtube video id>">
</iframe>
It is my understanding that YouTube has taken over ensuring that the video format is compatible with the device so you don't have to worry about it with this method.

I tried this code but video is just continuing to load, not to playing.
I also tried video codec H-264 but that is not working.
Next I tried to convert mp4 video to webm but that did not help either
Can anyone tell me how to do this using jquery and ajax?
<video controls muted>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
Did you checked by drag and drop to open the movie.mp4 or the movie.ogg file?
If the file does not work by simply opening it using a browser, it might be the file's problem, not the code or the browser.
For the file type support per browsers please refer the "Can I use?" pages:
MPEG-4/H.264
Ogg/Theora
<video controls autoplay src="uniform_shop.mp4" type="video/mp4"> .
</video>
Im trying to the implement a video into my HTML code for a school assignment but, the area where the video should be comes up with a player but the video never loads.
The video is inside the same file as the pages so I don't knwo why it won't load.
As mentioned by Nikhil, you should first check if the path is correct.
Secondly, you should check if the video format is supported. Currently, MP4, WebM and Ogg are supported only.(Though this should not be the case as you are using MP4 format with correct MIME type)
If you are using the supported video then check if you have used the right MIME type.
For fallback, you can try this syntax:
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
Any text between the <video> and </video> tags will be displayed in browsers that do not support the <video> element.
For more info on this, you can refer to w3school.
Have you checked the path of the video properly?
The syntax is right, I guess you are giving the wrong path to the src attribute.
Or you can try this also (If the path is right):
<video width="400" controls autoplay>
<source src="uniform_shop.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
I am trying to load this in a video tag but it is not loading. If I go to the link directly on my iPhone or android phone it will play without problems.
<video width="400" controls>
<source src="http://vod.ak.hls.ttvnw.net/v1/AUTH_system/vods_2f44/asiagodtonegg3be0_17169379616_331512496/high/highlight-22030149-muted-Y56G7SNUCG.m3u8" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
</video>
The correct type is application/x-mpegURL or vnd.apple.mpegURL
I want to play .mov video like as this, but video doesn't play in any browser.
<video width="400" controls Autoplay=autoplay>
<source src="D:/mov1.mov" type="video/mov">
</video>
You can use below code:
<video width="400" controls autoplay>
<source src="D:/mov1.mov" type="video/mp4">
</video>
this code will help you.
Instead of using <source> tag, use <src> attribute of <video> as below and you will see the action.
<video width="320" height="240" src="mov1.mov"></video>
or
you can give multiple tags within the tag, each with a different video source. The browser will automatically go through the list and pick the first one it’s able to play. For example:
<video id="sampleMovie" width="640" height="360" preload controls>
<source src="HTML5Sample_H264.mov" />
<source src="HTML5Sample_Ogg.ogv" />
<source src="HTML5Sample_WebM.webm" />
</video>
If you test that code in Chrome, you’ll get the H.264 video. Run it in Firefox, though, and you’ll see the Ogg video in the same place.
Unfortunately .mov files are not supported with html5 video playback. You can see what filetypes are supported here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Supported_media_formats
If you need to be able to play these formats with your html5 video player, you'll need to first convert your videofile--perhaps with something like this:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/html5-media-converter
Content Type for MOV videos are video/quicktime in my case. Adding type="video/mp4" to MOV video file solved issue in my case.
<video width="400" controls Autoplay=autoplay>
<source src="D:/mov1.mov" type="video/mp4">
</video>
in the video source change the type to "video/quicktime"
<video width="400" controls Autoplay=autoplay>
<source src="D:/mov1.mov" type="video/quicktime">
</video>
You can use Controls attribute
<video id="sampleMovie" src="HTML5Sample.mov" controls></video>
My new answer is to use ffmpeg to transcode the .mov like ffmpeg -i sourceFile.mov destinationFile.mp4. Do same for the webm format.
OLD Answer:
Here's what you do:
Upload your video to Youtube.
Install the "Complete YouTube Saver" plugin for Firefox
Using the plugin in Firefox, download both the MP4 and WEBM formats and place them on your Web server
Add the HTML5 Video element to your webpage per MDN's recommendation
<video controls>
<source src="somevideo.webm" type="video/webm">
<source src="somevideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
I'm sorry; your browser doesn't support HTML5 video in WebM with VP8/VP9 or MP4 with H.264.
<!-- You can embed a Flash player here, to play your mp4 video in older browsers -->
</video>
Style the <video> element with CSS to suit your needs. For example Materializecss has a simple helper class to render the video nicely across device types.
I'm creating a webpage that is using HTML5 for videos. I tried one video, and it loaded and played successfully. But then, the other video does not even load. How can I fix this? The code is the same for the working video and the not working video
<video src="SnakeVids/sukyandaru.mp4" width="350" height="300" controls="controls" type="video/mp4"></video>
Btw, the difference is that the first video is a .mp4, and the other one I converted from .flv to .mp4.
After reading the comments, it looks like your video was converted into a format that is not compatible with Google Chrome. MP4 supports some codecs but only a small subset is widely supported, and Chrome supports these video formats for the <video> tag.
You should encode your video using a supported codec.
Additionally, you might want to provide different sources for compatibility with other browsers and platforms.ogg is a safe choice. A simplified example extracted from w3schools:
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
You can also use third-party libraries, like videoJS, that will help you with video formats support. Some of them even have a flash fallback.
