Can't Get Video to Work in IE9

[WesCole]

First off...Hello from a newbie.

I am learning some HTML over Spring Break and I ran into an issue.

I am trying to add a video to my web site and it works in EVERYTHING except Internet Explorer...The video is encoded in H.264 format and AAC audio.

Here is the code snippet:

<div class="video-player" align="center">

<video width="640" height="360" controls="controls">
<source src="videos/Goats.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="videos/Goats.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
Your browser does not support this video.
</video>

</div>

Thanks for any advice.

Hi there WesCole,

and a warm welcome to these forums.

The following links show which browsers support the video element, .mp4 and .ogg files...

1. http://caniuse.com/#search=video
2. http://caniuse.com/#search=mp4
3. http://caniuse.com/#search=ogg

...plus some other useful information.

p.s. don't use align="center", instead use CSS methods.

Thanks for the links!

It looks like my mp4 file should play in IE9 according to one of those tables...not sure why it isn't working.

As for CSS, I am slowly learning that as well, but was just trying to get the video working on all browsers before I dive into that.
