I have old mivie with the extension wmv. Those movies can be seen with the VLC software but in page 125 of your manual it is noted that the WmV format use the Windows Media Player by default. Problem arise since Windows media player is no more supported and even the dowload from Microsoft is no more available. I have therefore converted all the movies in the MP4 format (wchich are much more bigger).
The probleme is that even if uou have the VLC program in your machine you are not able to seen the movies since the windows on the web site will not give you the choice of selecting a reader but impose the windows media player.
Can you remove from your manual the compatibility of the Media player or include the VLC reader ?

Hi Kol Asim,
I am not a great HTML coder therefore I have to ask you the following question:
. Using the TAghtml5 <vIDEO> i have to code the following applet the following way:
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="/movies/my_movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="/movies/movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
Thank again for the info.

1) - the *.ogg format would need to be added to increase compatibility with multiple browsers and devices.
2) - I discourage him; ... but you can attach videos to the project (attachments); it is better to send them to the server with an alternate FTP client;
You can check these examples on your browsers:
>> this is a pure HTML5 MP4 video; ...no! OGG;
>> this is a regular Youtube video;
>> this is a Tubular + Youtube video;
... press Ctrl+U to see the source code I used ...
