Well, I think the responsive part of your question is on topic. (?)

Here’s a good rundown of both CSS and JavaScript ways of adding video:

 Hi All,
 Need some quick, real world advice on adding an mp4 video to a web page.
 It needs to work in modern versions of major browsers.  I can skip 
 the iPhone display but would be nice to have that too.
 The page is responsive and I would need to be able to control the 
 width
 for
 various column or screen widths.

 Is there a good tutorial on this?
 Do I need to request different versions...mp3, webm?
 I'm thinking get it on youtube might be an easy fix. Any thoughts 
 on
 that?

 Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 Here's a link to the video source:

 http://delivery.tourdesigncreative.com/clients/BET/BET_PremiumTicketR
 eel_Rev4.mp4

 I will be swapping it out with the video on this page:

 Thanks,

 Rod Castello


 I recommend videos as well. We usually serve WebM, ogg and mp4 using
 html5 element.


 Er, that should have been *videojs*... I recommend videojs as well.

Thanks Fred,
I'll look into that. I do a lot of emails too, so this will be really
helpful.

Re: [css-d] Having trouble adding video to web page.

2014-06-05 Thread Philip Taylor

God preserve me from those who would embed video in e-mail.
It is bad enough having video inflicted on me when I visit
a web site, but to have it arrive in an e-mail would indicate
to me that the sender had no concern whatsoever for the
civilities of electronic intercourse.

A link to a web site with a interesting movie is a potential good start of a 
relationship. 
An embedded video in the email message is tantamount to a good addition to the 
spam filter.


Embedded videos better be opt-in or the sender will be sorry they were so 
stupid.
