Video Formats/Plugins Playable in Android

[Jeremy82]

As the title says... I just realized that a classic flv/mp4 vids are not playable in my Android. The same applies for AEBN embed vids btw. Do you have any idea how to avoid it? Is there any good plugin for WordPress? Thanks...

I thought MP4 h.264 vids played on everything these days.

flv is done I think. Have to use mp4 as Cleo mentioned. We also use FASTART to get them to play out of the gate. Your server may also need some tweaking.

We just downloaded some promo videos from a sponsor. 1+ gig for 10 mins at 1920 x 1080.
They need to be re-sized to 640 x 360 or 640 x 480 and set to medium quality.
Any more is just bravado or fantasy island. Check the sizes of your videos as well.

We've also made the switch to html 5 for playing videos.

I stopped using FLV in my members areas and go exclusively with MP4 using h264 codec as mentioned. Some MAs I still use wmv as another option only though, MP4 is the way to go.
