kney Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 This is how you use the new HTML5 tag <video>. But I want to know how to stream youtube videos through this tag. <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="nl"> <head><title>HTML5</title></head> <body> <video width="320" height="240" controls="controls"> <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" /> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> </body> </html> If you change the source to the youtube URL it doesn't work This doesn't work <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="nl"> <head><title>HTML5</title></head> <body> <video width="320" height="240" controls="controls"> <source src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-p3atsZRPLc" /> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/260790-new-video-tag/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyKay47 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The HTML5 <video> supports MP4, WebM, and Ogg video formats. I believe that youtube uses the FLV format.
