I have a new project

http://tippingproductions.com/tpc/demosite5/

The layout isn't complete but 2/3 of the way down next to the image is a small video area. I have already done the css and coding (HTML Editor) but its not showing up and getting some odd action from my browser. It is not on any service (youtube, vimeo) but saved in my images folder. I used the coding from the help article that I have used many times before but is doesn't show up and my browser (or HTML editor for that matter). I sure that is has to do with being an internally stored video but beyond me how to fix it.

Thanks in advance

Hi Bayron,

at first sorry for my bad english.
Now to your problem:
In Safari, the video plays immediately. In the other browser you get an popup with the question on which player the video should be played. (for example Firefox).
What yo need is an html5 video Player like this one: http://v4e.thewikies.com

Oliver,

Thanks - can see what your saying. I have tried to install but I can't get the video to play and it doesn't want to respond correctly when I go to other sizes of the screen

I've uploaded the new code (haven't put a new jpg display yet) but it doesnt operate.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

ok,

in your "custom.css"
you have following description:
.cc-video-wrapper {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
padding-top: 0;
height: 0px;
float: left;
}

change to:

position: relative;
float: left;


video width must be 100%

okay i see the problem:
you need for every browser an different video format:

safari, ie / .mp4
firefox / .webm - .ogv
chrome / .mp4 - .ogv - .webm

You have to convert your video to these formats
