Run the downloaded setup file As Administrator. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF the migraine and ALWAYS make sure that the middle section labeled "Optional offer:" is absolutely NOT CHECKED, it will be checked by default so always UNCHECK it before proceeding to download.Īfter it's finished downloading, close out of Firefox. VERIFY FIRST that the website detected you're using FireFox and has set your download for the flash player to be for Firefox.ĭon't just click download. Within Firefox or whatever flavor of Firefox you have(CyberFox being my favorite choice here), simply browse to All were to no avail and didn't get me any further with getting my online videos back to normal viewing condition. Reset firefox, tried safe mode, removed plugins, debugged using developers tools. The long and short of this is that progress is being made, but you still can't avoid using multiple encodings without using a plugin. Because of this, playback of H.264 video will work, but audio will depend on whether the end-user has the AAC codec already present on their machine. The H.264 codec is merely for video, and in the MPEG-4 container it is most commonly paired with the closed-source AAC audio codec.
However, as noted in that link, this still comes with a caveat.
Without getting too deep into the politics of it (see following link for that) this will allow Firefox to support H.264 starting in "early 2014". Network infrastructure giant Cisco has announced plans to open-source an implementation of the H.264 codec, removing the licensing fees that have so far proved a barrier to use by Mozilla. Your browser doesn't seem to support the video tag. Mozilla claims that only mp4 and WebM are necessary to ensure complete coverage of all major browsers, but you may wish to consult the Video Formats and Browser Support heading on W3C's HTML5 Video page to see which browser supports what formats.Īdditionally, it's worth checking out the HTML5 Video page on Wikipedia for a basic comparison of the major file formats.īelow is the appropriate video tag (you will need to re-encode your video in WebM or OGG formats as well as your existing mp4): You will also need to use an alternate form of the video tag, as seen in the JSFiddle from above, reproduced below. To play videos in all browsers without using plugins, you will need to host multiple copies of each video, in different formats. Firefox does not support the MPEG H.264 (mp4) format at this time, due to a philosophical disagreement with the closed-source nature of the format.
