I am using JW-Player in my website and I am generating the embed code against all my videos, but there is something missing because when I embed that code in to my webpage video plays on my PC but it's not playing on Android & iPhone.
I want that my embed code must work on these too.
The player has built in social sharing options.

We are Using JW Player version (6) on our website.
Unable to play 3gp Video on JWPlayer with the fancy box on website, can you please suggest the possible solution.
OR
May recommend any other player that will play (3gp, mp4 & mov) file using the fancybox on website.
So I'm using YouTube's iframes in order to show some videos in my app. The thing is I cannot make the videos fullscreen.
I'm using this code:
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RnYcPJTtV1A" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
If you write that on a single html file the browser (all of them) will show you the fullscreen button on the far right. But, that same code on a Win8 app (html of course) will display the video but will not show the fullscreen button.
Do you thing that's what YouTube (google) wants? I mean, should I be doing anything different?

Sebastian,
Something to keep in mind is that iframe within a Windows Store app is designed for limited use only. The certification requirement 2.4 states:
The primary experiences your app provides must take place within the
app
One needs to be very careful about including content from sites you do not control via iframe in a Windows Store app, because this content can change without warning in ways that may break your app or introduce unexpected behavior.
Because YouTube videos may use either Flash or HTML5 for playback, you may find that some videos simply will not play in the context of a Windows Store app, because ActiveX controls are not available in that context.
Given all that, I would not expect to be able to play full-screen video embedding YouTube videos via iframe in a Windows Store app.
I need to implement a video player that should play files(wmv, mpeg, mp4 etc..), I have tried object tag, but it requires media player plugin to play I dont want this kind. Somebody can suggest me.
Thanks in advance.
For playing Video in Website, the users need to download plugin (WMP or any other player). Without the plugin, Video cannot stream or play in browser.
what is the best way to open a video on mobile device?
When I do video that works fine on my HTC Touch but on iPhone it complained that link is not valid.
Please enlight.
Thank you,
Tee
Use the embed code provided by YouTube on the video's page, not a link to the actual video file:
https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/featuredarticles/iPhoneURLScheme_Reference/YouTubeLinks/YouTubeLinks.html
I've embedded a YouTube video onto a site (built in drupal) using the embed code from the video's YouTube page.
If I visit that page on an iPhone, it picks up the fact that there is a YouTube video and displays the icon that you click to pop open the video and watch it.
If I visit the same page on a Palm Pre it just displays a blank space where the video should be. If I visit the video on the YouTube page itself, however, the Palm Pre picks up the fact that there is a video and allows you to open it.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has run into the same problem and has some insights they can offer. I'd love to have a more graceful solution than just adding a link to the YouTube page below the embedded player
Thanks!
You could compare the embed code actually used on the YouTube page (as opposed to the one they offer for quick copy & paste) with the one you are using, as there are quite some different ways to embed a video.
I would expect them to use the SWFObject for embedding, which is a tiny bit more effort to use on your page, but usually works a lot more reliable than the 'old fashioned' embed tag offered for quick copy&paste.
You might also try requesting the YouTube page faking the user agent of the Palm Pre, as they might deliver something different for those, but that is pretty unlikely.
