I'm using hmtl5 video. It works normally in all browsers, except IE9.
In IE9 it's cannot playing after first play, or video freezes after a few seconds, but video state is "playing". I've add eventlisteners to check it.
Can anybody help me to solve this problem?
I would suggest using a flash player fallback for Internet Explorer 9 and other browsers with issues with HTML5 video.
I think IE9 has some issues regarding HTML5 Video. You shouldn't trust on that to work. Maybe a (flash) fallback for IE9 would be good. Most of those bugs are fixed in IE10. So HTML5 Video should work there (if you use the right video encodings).

I am doing a project where I have to display video using Flash OSMF player. Also I have to display some text and image on top of the player.
It's working pretty cool in chrome and IE. When it comes to Firefox and safari the text element is hiding behind the video player. I have z-index CSS property to make it to the front but no luck it's still hidden in the background .
I have a live site http://www.tallenge.com/alcy-caluamba/all-categories1/general23/lecrae-i'm-turnt--choreography-by-alcy/vote
Since it is not working in Firefox I have changed the player only for Firefox and safari to html5 player in live site, so that it is displaying text as expected. For testing you can take player code(under medidplayer element) from chrome and replace it in Firefox - you will get the issue I have mentioned above.
Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated .
Thanks in advance ...
This problem can be related to the wmode setting of the Flash player object, see the Adobe documentation of this setting:
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/flash-object-embed-tag-attributes.html#main_Using_Window_Mode__wmode__values_
You can try using wmode="opaque" as a param of the Flash object:
<param name="wmode" value="opaque"/>
However according to the Flash docs in that mode the plugin is not able to take advantage of hardware acceleration.
Unrelated question, if you already used the HTML5 video tag as a fallback for Firefox, why Flash? I'll take the opposite direction HTML5 video tag by default, Flash as a fallback for old browsers.
I am using JWplayer 6.
I need to force it to use HTML5 even if HTML5 is not supported (this is for RESTing purposes).
I cannot figure out how to accomplish this.
I have tried setting jwplayer("playername").settings({primary: "flash"}) - it didn't work.
Right now I am resorting to disabling flash in browsers but not all browsers/devices allow this without addons.
I am using (player).getRenderingMode to determine the playback type so I am absolutely certain that only flash is being played.
Any help is appreciated!
UPDATE:
I have the primary: "flash"/"HTML5" setting working in every browser except Safari.
According to W3C schools Safari DOES support mp4 files in HTML5 mode.
So my question is now how to force Safari to play in HTML5 mode
Is it possible to use only a mp4 video and the HTML5 player in ie7,8,9 firefox, chrome and safari
I've seen these links

I'm having a problem playing audio in Safari or Opera. The following code does not work in either:
<audio controls>
<source src="http://fallowproduction.com/music/Paradigm%20E%20-%20Once%20upon%20a%20Dubstep2.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
Here's the jsFiddle for easy access to the code: http://jsfiddle.net/panq7/1/
Considering it's really simple, I'm mystified as to why. Is this a normal problem? Or is there something else going on? I looked up playing mp3 problems with Safari and while I found no solution, I found a bunch of complaints.
Edit: I fixed the Safari problem by adding an option for an embed tag. Still, it's not the ideal fix, as Safari is supposed to support the <audio> tag, which it does not, apparently (someone let me know if it works in their version of Safari). However, Opera apparently does not support the <audio> tag, or the <embed> tag. This is contrary to the browser specifications, as mentioned later by another member of StackOverflow.
Opera does support <audio> however, when using MP3, there seems to be limited support for different sampling rates. To solve this problem, I detect support for OGG and detect the Opera browser and fall back to OGG. It's not perfect because I would prefer to simply detect if there is MP3 support and go with that, however Opera reports that it does support MP3, so it's not enough to just check that.
You could also simply use supported MP3 formats for Opera. I believe the following is supported:
32kHz/44.1kHz/48kHz frequencies,
16kbps-10Mbps bitrate
The reason may be the missing closed tag /> in source line.

An odd thing with firefox. This video will only play when it's seeked from ~6 seconds onwards
http://www.wealthplanning.tv/media/videos/introduction.webm
html link here too http://wealthplanning.tv/media/videos/test.html
Works fine in Chrome, and even opera when inside the video tags.
Anyone have any ideas?
Seems that it was an encoding issue. Was using Miro originally, but tried it with XMedia Recode instead and that solved it.
