Hello I tried to add a company video to the "About Page".

I do use Internet Explorer 11.
The poster image is displayed. But the video does not show.
I get the message "not supported video format of wrong path"

<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="2">
<video autoplay="" controls="" height="340" poster="video/pagolf.jpg" width="768">
<source src="video/pagolf.ogv" type="video/ogg" />
<source src="video/pagolf.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
your browser does not support the video format
</video>
</td>
</tr>

Thank you for the Information. I tryed it, but it did notwork. I do get the message "invalid source"
Again the poster is shown, but the video not.

I tried the following directly from the IE:
http://padev.azurewebsites.net/video/pagolf.jpg >> Picture is shown
http://padev.azurewebsites.net/video/pagolf.mp4 >> Video is not shown - message site was not found

I would presume the URL maybe slightly wrong. I can view the image but the mp4 is missing either from the video folder or not on site at all.

How did you create the mp4 video and what type of mp4 did you save it as? I found saving as ipod mp4 plays on most OS / browsers. Is the mp4 still in that folder as telling me it is not there.

I have tried to play the video in VLC player and Media Player from here but both say file is not there! I can play one of my videos using these players using link http://www.mywebsite/video/mp04241.mp4 and it plays it fine.

What program are you using to encode the video? I use Adobe Media Encoder CS5. I have attached a screenshot of settings I use.

Hope it helps.

I can play my the video on my HD using VLC - works fine.
I have tried to play your video via the link you provided - that fails - site not available

I have encoded the video using Freemake Video Converter. Using the MP4 profile, see picture.

in your screen shot it looks like the files are stored locally on your pc / iis. Is your website hosted within iis or forwarded to your iis server? The fact my browser and vlc say they can't find the video seems they are not on your webserver perhaps. Sorry don't know what else to suggest. If you want pm me and I will give you my email to send me the file and I can upload it to one of my test sites to see if it works if that helps any.

I send the seen shot of a windows FTP file explorer screen accessing the files on the MS Azure web server.

Both files are located there:
http://padev.azurewebsites.net/video/pagolf.jpg >> Picture is shown
http://padev.azurewebsites.net/video/pagolf.mp4 >> Video is not shown - message site was not found
