Trouble with playing/displaying MP4 Video

2 Views

I have trouble adding an MP4 Video to my website.
The link to my site is http://san-kelloff-italy.com/

The code I’m using:

<video width = "320" height = "240" controls autoplay>
   <source src = "http://san-kelloff-italy.com/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/images/video_sk.MP4" type = "video/mp4">
</video>

On Chrome the videos does’t play.

On FireFox the videos said “No video with supported format and MIME type found.”

I’m not sure what’s going on but when I tried the code using this link below the videos can play on both chrome and firefox

Can anyone help me please?

  1. Sorry, I was being clumsy and careless to make this mistake.
    I have figured out how to fixed it.

    What I did was I renamed the .MP4 on my file to lowercase and also changed the link location on the code block

    FROM.

    <video width = "320" height = "240" controls autoplay>
   <source src = "http://san-kelloff-italy.com/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/images/video_sk.MP4" type = "video/mp4">
</video>

    To.

    <video width = "320" height = "240" controls autoplay>
   <source src = "http://san-kelloff-italy.com/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/images/video_sk.mp4" type = "video/mp4">
</video>

    So just other people who is like me being careless about the links and think that it is not case sensitive which it is! So be careful!

  2. Regarding FireFox, MP4 is not (usually) supported. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTML/Supported_media_formats for documentation.

    Edit: The OGG format is used as a secondary format to allow for cross-browser playback. That’s why the link you posted contained two references: one to the MP4 and another to the OGG.

    <video width="320" height="240" controls autoplay>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support video
</video>

    MP4s (and a few other patented codecs) will work on FireFox if the underlying OS or hardware has and shares the decoder. Opera also doesn’t support MP4 and I can’t find evidence that they will use the OS’s decoder if available.
