Ie9 HTML5 Video Support

IE9 HTML5 video support

On the official Microsoft website there is this code snippets for video on IE9

<video width="400"
    height="300"
    src="video.mp4"
    poster="frame.png"
    autoplay
    controls
    loop>
    This content appears if the video tag or the codec is not supported.
 </video>

Try with this code.

HTML5 Video Not Working in IE9+10

IE only supports a limited set of codecs for video sources

IE 9+ supports h264 with mp3/aac, vp8 and vp9 are questionable, all others it does not seem to support.

MDN doc on media browser compatibility

So you will have to provide several video sources to support each browser, but not necessarily a video for each browser as some of the browsers do overlap in their support.

Providing a video with h264 aac/mp3 should play on IE, Safari, and Chrome.
While a video with Theora or VP8 should play on Firefox and Opera

Internet Explorer 9 beta HTML5 video tag not supporting relative width/height?

Have you tried setting the height and width using CSS rather than the HTML element's attributes?

ie rather than:

<video src='whatever' height='50%' width='50%'>

you could try:

<video src='whatever' style='height:50%; width:50%;'>

...or, of course, put the styles into your separate CSS file.

HTML5 - mp4 video does not play in IE9

Ended up using http://videojs.com/ to support all browsers.

But to get the video working in IE9 and Chrome I just added html5 doc type and used mp4:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
  <video src="video.mp4" width="400" height="300" preload controls>
  </video>
</body>
</html>

HTML5 video won't play in IE9

The encoding of your mp4 video is not correct.

Based on the answer of this question I converted one of the videos on your site to use a baseline (3) encoding profile and that made the video work on an html page in IE10.

html5 video mp4 works in safari but not ie9

HTML5 Please recommand using a polyfill for this.

So you can use this one : http://mediaelementjs.com/

Note: Are you sure your DOCTYPE respect the HTML5 syntax as following :

<!DOCTYPE html>

HTML5 Video not working only in IE9

had a similiar issue, and i had to register the mime types via .htaccess on my server (mp4 didn t work before).

.htaccess-file:

AddType video/ogg .ogv
AddType video/mp4 .mp4
AddType video/mp4 .mov
AddType video/webm .webm
