[Plugin: Secure HTML5 Video Player] Problems and suggestions

Html5 can’t replace adobe at once… but we can use html5 fallback support to flash. Because A rapidly growing number of handheld devices support either Flash or HTML5 for video playback. I use flv player to my website with html5 fallback support. It does auto-detect which playback mode is supported by a user’s device and select accordingly. It works great.

First & Foremost, EXCELLENT Plug-In ??

Now am using FF 12.0 and I also confirmed the issue in Safari 5.1.7 – The issue is that the control bar is a bit larger than the video. I tried to adjust the size from settings and also using the short codes. This is similar to Ph0sky image.

What can I do to make the control bar equal size to the video?

Thanks In Advance…

fyi, I just tried it in IE 7 and the player worked fine???

OK, well that was embarrassing :]

I entered the code within the HTML of the page/post and I retract my statement… lol

One other thing, How do I remove the black boarder around the video? I did resize and when it plays the border is gone, but when it’s loaded it has a side and bottom border?

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks…

Hello, having beginner trouble.I’m new to this plug in and video for wordpress. I could use some help, and here’s what I tried.
I used the MIRO Video converter for a wmv to format into webm and mp4, The results of the same vid are; INTRO_2CM.webmvp8 and INTRO_2CM.mp4video.
Then stored them at the hosting site (bluehost.com) via Filezilla.
The path looks correct in the video directory for this plugin;
/home1/teachit9/public_html/videos
In html mode I individually inserted these short codes with no luck in ie, chrome or firefox;
[video webm="INTRO_1CM.webmvp8.webm"] – no video appeared.
then I tried the short code,
[video mp4="INTRO_1CM.mp4video"]
then I tried the short code,
[video file="INTRO_1CM"]

Oops
In my first post I should have the number 1 where-ever a 2 appears in the names of the file names of the videos.

the video player appears in firefox & chrome, not i.e. and in each this appears at the bottom,

Thanx for your help.

I’d recommend first renaming all of the video files. The 3 video files should start with the same file name before the period, and end in the 3 different file extensions: .mp4, .ogv, .webm. So you 3 video files should be named:

INTRO_1CM.webm
INTRO_1CM.ogv
INTRO_1CM.mp4

Then use the short code:
[video file="INTRO_1CM"]
and the video should now be visible.

It sounds like both issues are due to some inherited css styles that cascaded to the player. I’d recommend using Safari or Chrome to see what css is actually causing this, and either delete those css styles, or override them for the player. In Safari, enable the developer menu in Preferences, then right click on where the style is off, and select “Inspect Element” and that will show you where the style is defined for that element. If you expand the computed style panel, you can see where in the style sheet that border comes from.
