my code:
<video width="600" height="400" controls="controls">
<source src="uploads/video/patientenhandset_uk_high.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="uploads/video/patientenhandset_uk_high.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
Your browser not supported this video.
</video>
This code IE10, IE9, firefox and opera works. So why does not work in chrome?
I believe Chrome uses the WebM format (video/webm), so you'll probably need to offer this as another <source> alternative.
That code looks fine. Are you serving the right mime type for mp4?
The latest chrome plays HTML5 video fine, so you have something wrong, but it doesn't appear to be in your HTML. You may also want to try switching your source tags to using a fully qualified domain name, like http://www.yourdomain.com/yourvideo.mp4

Here is my HTML5 Video code:
<video id="video-1" width="600" preload="auto" controls >
<source src='https://tuneables.s3.amazonaws.com/somevideo.mp4' type='video/mp4' />
<source src='https://tuneables.s3.amazonaws.com/somevideo.ogg' type='video/ogg' />
</video>
I have set "src" of other server which has "https://".
This video is running in Chrome but not in FireFox.
Although When I upload this video on my server and set src="http://example.com/somevideo.mp4", now the video is running fine in firefox.
What is the actual problem there..?
Is this problem due to "http://" or "https://".?
Thanks In Advance.
Why do you have the dot at "video/.mp4"? And not in video/ogg?
Those video types are compatible and should work fine.
If you're testing on Firefox for Mac OS you need to include a .webm format aswell:
<source src='https://tuneables.s3.amazonaws.com/somevideo.webm' type='video/webm' />
As when I tested on Mac OS in a Firefox browser it didn't run either, but when I included a webm video format it did run and solved all my problems
I have a website built with bootstrap and loading video in a dialog:
<video width="760" style="background-color: white;" preload controls autoplay>
<source src="....." type="video/mp4" />
</video>
Shows and works fine in IE, Chrome and Safari.
In Firefox auto play worked a few times, and now does not work at all.
No errors in console and video plays just fine manually using controls.
I have also tried script approach (without autoplay attribute):
oncanplay="$(this)[0].play()"
And works flawlessly on all browsers except Firefox.
Can anyone see what could be wrong?
I have tested this on all browser its working perfect with javascript event
<video onloadeddata="this.play();" poster="poster.png" playsinline loop muted controls>
<source src="video.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="video.mp4.webm" type="video/webm" />
<source src="video.mp4.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
Your browser does not support the video tag or the file format of this video.
</video>
The problem has an easy solution: changing the order of the videos, listing first the .mp4 source and next the .webm source made the auto-play videos run on Firefox, Explorer and Chrome, this of course is valid if you have multiple video sources.
A side note: Firefox supports H.264 on Windows 7 and later since version 21. Firefox supports H.264 on Linux since version 26 if the appropriate gstreamer plug-ins are installed. Partial support for Firefox refers to the lack of support in OSX & some Linux platforms, for Android Firefox it refers to the inability of hardware acceleration.
This worked for me for the firefox browser, but it have to be muted.
<video
width="100%"
height="100%"
onloadedmetadata="this.muted = true"
autoplay
>
<source src="assets/videos/Helpline_Video.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
First check your web page here for test
http://html5test.com/
Second inspect via code inspector and enter them in the browser to check if the are working fine or not. Or drag and drop video file over the browser to check if its working or not.
Thirdly try checking MIME Types
AddType video/mp4 for .mp4 .m4v
AddType video/ogg for .ogv
AddType video/webm for .webm
Fourthly check you html5 converter it has often problem with format conversion I had same problem year back when I was working html5 video. Changing it fixed the issue for me.
Last but not the least; Add a flash fall-back!

Firefox Video Issue: Troubleshooting
Make sure that the server sends the video files with a correct and supported MIME type to make it work in Firefox.
link
Use source URL relative to ROOT, not Web page
Eg: src="/complete/folder/path/video.ogv"
Version of mozilla.
Mozilla Firefox (3.5 and later) supports Theora video and Vorbis audio in an Ogg container.
Firefox 4 supports WebM.

From Firefox 66 and aboew, you must click the unblock button on the right of browser bar to unblock Autoplay Video and Audio
I'm trying to use the html5 video tag to embed an mp4 but I'm having some issues that vary across different browsers.
My code looks like this:
<video controls="controls" width="640" height="360">
<source src="http://www.mydomain.com/video.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
IE - Won't recognize the file when trying to embed (edit: IE was actually dragging on the file size not the format) and when the uri to my video is plugged into the address bar it opens the video in windows media player.
Chrome, Firefox - Simply will not recognized the file format (edit: Firefox was dragging on the size as well, Chrome was the only browser having issues) and when the uri is plugged into the address bar it attempts to play the video within the browser but fails.
Could there be something within the file that would prevent it from being embedded? If so, how can I find this out?
The problem is likely that the browsers are not supporting MP4, because it is a proprietary format. To get the best cross-browser support you'll have to also encode your video in WebM and Ogg/Vorbis formats and then add those files to your video tag with their own source tags.
Just because a browser will play a video if you navigate directly to the video's URL does not mean that the browser supports that format. Usually, navigating straight to the video causes the browser to play the video with a plug-in such as Quicktime or VLC that has much better codec support than the browser does.
try this without that "/"
<video controls="controls" width="640" height="360">
<source src="http://www.mydomain.com/video.mp4" type="video/mp4" >
<source src="http://www.mydomain.com/video.ogg" type="video/ogg" >
</video>
Video html5 does not work in all browsers except google chrome.
Firefox display: No video with supported format and MIME type found
Html in page:
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="http://video-js.zencoder.com/oceans-clip.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
According to W3 schools, only MP4 is not supported on Firefox. So if you are trying to display MP4, don't expect much from it. Also, Opera and Firefox offer build-in decoding for this feature.
I’m using this code in Google Chrome and the video is working well, but in Firefox (version 11) it’s not working.
How can I make it work in Firefox?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<video width="300" height="200" controls="controls">
<source src="http://localhost/javascript/test.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
</body>
</html>
Firefox doesn't support mp4 as encoding for the video. Have a look at MDN for a compatibility table.
You would have to provide additional encoding for Firefox to work (like this example taken from MDN as well):
<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.
<!-- You can embed a Flash player here, to play your mp4 video in older browseres -->
</video>
UPDATE 01/19/2016:
Now Firefox supports mp4 video formats. So this question should be automatically answered because of update by Firefox browser. Please let us know if your video still does not work.
Since version 4, Firefox only supports WebM, VP8 and Vorbis video format. (Firefox 3.5 supports Ogg, Theora and Vorbis.)
See:
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Media_formats_supported_by_the_audio_and_video_elements.
http://diveintohtml5.info/video.html#what-works
You’ll need to create another version of your video in a Firefox supported format, and add another <source> element for it.
For an example, see:
