Answer 1

Hi,

Please give details of link to your website page or a mashup...we need to see your full markup/scripting to give a definate answer (you may be using third-party shims or have markup errors).

video support details can be found in the links provided at the top of this forum

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/hh410106#_HTML5_video_audio help yourself...

Element name	Supported formats
video	MP4 container, H.264 video, Baseline, Main, and High profiles—audio in AAC or MP3 WebM video, if you have the VP8 codec installed
audio	MP3, and AAC in MP4 container

it may be a setting on the Advanced tab of Internet Options, or your IE Security settings....

these are public forums...

Hi,

 I give below my code sample.

video Form mylocal folder

<video id="videoElement" width="480" height="208"  autoplay="autoplay" controls="controls">
        <source src="1.ogv" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"'></source>
        <source src="1.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'></source>

 Your browser does not support the  element.

    </video>

live streaming video

    <video id="videoElement" width="480" height="208"  autoplay="autoplay" controls="controls">
                <source src="http://livestreamingvideourl/video.ogg" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"'></source>
