Hi,
Embed video is showing black before pushing play-button. Only with Safari browser? Any help?
Hi there,
how is the video being added ? Are you using a plugin ?
Hi,
I have used code = [video width="960" height="540" mp4="videofile.mp4"][/video]
Would there be better way to embed video?
:D
so code (video width="960" height="540" mp4="http://videofile.mp4"][/video)
Is the video uploaded to your media library?
If so have you considered uploading to a service like YouTube then you can use the YouTube embed block from core WordPress?
Hi,
Yes it is at the media library. Youtube would be next if there isnt solution for uploading to media library. Too bad cause the video itself is clean and nice embedding this way. Only thing is that black screen before pushing play in safari.
Hi,
I used easy video player-plugin now and it solved the problem. Thank you!
No problem :)
