I've never found a problem with those conversion settings. When you say
"some users struggling to encode video to play properly in all browsers on
all devices" does your test file work for them? e.g. is the problem their
conversion process, how they've added the files to the LO filenames etc, or
device specific?

 

Are they using Bootstrap too or Nottingham template?

 

Just things I would check/clarify.

I've always worked on the basis that Format Factory, on the MP4 (H264)
settings works everywhere.

Hi Julian

 

I've just tested it on the following:

 

Work PC via Google Chrome: Loads the player but doesn't play (latest version
of Chrome)

Work PC via IE9: Works fine

Home PC via Google Chrome: Works fine (latest version of Chrome)

IPad i0S7 via Safari: Works fine

IPad iOS7 via Google Chrome: Works fine

7" Android tablet via Google Chrome: Works fine

 

Not quite sure what's going on with Chrome on my work PC!

 

Let me know if I can do anything else to help.

 

Best regards

Yvonne

Hi,

 

I have some users struggling to encode video to play properly in all
browsers on all devices. I'd really appreciate knowing if the example below
works or fails on whatever deveice you happen to be reading this on:

 

http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_9569

 

There is only one video, if you wouldn't mind trying to play it, in
particular on iPads, I'd be grateful for the info. This example is a Format
Factory encoding to MP4 using AVC(H264)

 

Thanks,

 

Julian
