Hi Tom,
Yes, I think I have tried most of theml. Secure HTML5 Video works perfectly with Safari and Chrome but has several issues on Firefox. They have a page https://wordpress.org/plugins/secure-html5-video-player/faq/ that addresses the problem but I’ve done as it suggests and it still doesn’t work. I’ve got a ticket in with them now.
Here is a summary of the ones I’ve tried, if you’re interested:
Featured Video Plus – loops
Video JS – doesn’t show up on iPad but is Responsive!
Flowplayer commercial – (to remove icon) $512 for 100 sites
Easy Video Player/Wordpress Video Player (Noor) – shows FlowPlayer icon
Advanced Responsive Video Embedder – NextGenThemes – only for Youtube, etc, not mp4’s
JW Player (Longtail) – too complicated
KVS Player – doesn’t work
OS Media – unable to install
Video Gallery 1.1.5 / Huge IT Video Gallery – must be Youtube or Vimeo
WordPress Video Player 1.5.5 – Spider – only YouTube & Vimeo
Stream Video Player – no
vooPlayer – controls do not show up on iPad – just white box – waiting to hear from their support
