Question

Am I the only one experiencing this issue? I'm using the html5media library and the test page they provide no longer plays in Firefox 3.6.3, though it plays on the latest Safari, Chrome, Opera, and IE. On FF 3.6.3, it shows the video and the audio with large X through them. I'm using this library on my site and noticed the issue as well. I'm not seeing any errors in the error console.

Was it helpful?

OTHER TIPS

My guess would be that the ogv version of the video (the version Firefox uses) is not encoded correctly (or at least not in a way that Firefox recognizes), so when Firefox goes to play it, it fails. It works in other browsers because they make use of the mp4 format, which is encoded correctly. Other html5 video plays in my install of Firefox 3.6.3 so I don't believe it is a bug in Firefox. What are you using to encode the ogv format of the video on your site?
