Re: unable to play videos from your site
Hi Bog,
I am using FF5 ,i guess the part of the problem is that my FF may not be supporting .ogv format.Is there any way i can check if my FF supports .ogv ? If my FF doesnt support .ogv can i use xine or totem or mplayer external application to play videos from your web site?

Hi Bog,
No it doesn't play the videos from that site or even from youtube.com/html5,looks like something is broken at my end.If i am not wrong FF5 suports html5 so i am guessing it should play those videos.
EDIT : Are your videos encoded using the h.264 codec?

Re: unable to play videos from your site
Our videos are available in h.264 and theora/ogv. The videos on Firefox's site should definitely work since they're HTML5 available in webm, theora/ogv, and h.264/mp4.
I have a feeling the codec support on your machine is broken. We fall back to QuickTime if you don't have HTML5 video (but you do). I think mplayer or some other package can take quicktime content.
