... and h.264 is not h.264, it depends on the codec being used! I am also using h.264 videos on iOS and Android, but the fun stopped with the first customers, who couldn't play my videos on some Android devices. Obviously my choice of a Sorenson h.264 codec isn't compatible with all Android devices (mostly LG) and I have no idea if there is any codec at all, which is compatible with all Android devices. Sigh! Tiemo

On the first sight I didn't found any codec, which is available by standard on both platforms. I stopped my further investigations after I found the LAV-filters solution for the h.264 codec. But I wonder, which codec youtube converts all videos into or other platforms are using so that their videos are almost always compatible with all platforms. There must be any cross-platform codec or the browser video players bring all available codecs with them, but they are not available outside of the web player as in LC.

You need to install a h.264 filte Thanks, Tiemo. That's a serious bummer. It's 2017. Is there really no single codec available for Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android which allows playback of a single video file? Are we stuck in the yesteryear of having to query the user-agent and serve different files according to the user's OS? Extra bonus points if it's no patent-encumbered, but at this point I'll take what I can get. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ____________________________________________________________________ ambassa...@fourthworld.com http://www.FourthWorld.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
