Embedded Code in my application and facing browser and video format issue.

Hi JWPlayer Team,

I appreciate the code which you have provided in below link but i just wanted to know some of the basic things:

http://support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/articles/1406723-basic-video-embed

I am using visual studio 2010 framework 4.0, i have embedded your reputed code in my application but the mp4 video format is working fine in IE browser but not in Chrome browser.

Please let me know what are the formats does your player support and what are the browser versions it will support (we use IE, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera browsers and operating systems as MAC and windows).
We are having many users who will upload many videos to server and with different video formats (avi, flv, mov, mp4, 3gp, mpeg4, wmv, mpegps, webm.. etc)


If there is any conversion tool available with you then please let me know so that i can go ahead on that also converting my videos and play it

Please do the needful, as we are ready to buy the license as soon as possible if we are comfortable with your solution.

Thanks And Regards:
Rajiv

A properly-encoded MP4 (H.264, AAC audio, moov atom at the beginning of the file) will work in all current browsers (and in a lot of obsolete browser versions, as well), on all platforms (desktop, mobile). That's the only video format you need, and that's what you should convert everything to.

For desktop conversion, use Handbrake with default settings, plus check "Web optimized." http://handbrake.fr/

For server-side conversion, you'll probably have to plunge into ffmpeg. Too large a subject for this forum, since you'll also probably want to address factors like frame rates, bitrates, and so on, to get the file sizes down to a manageable level.
