#Html5 audio codec code
If it doesn’t work, you’ll need to set up a section of code much like this: Īnd convert the WAV file to the OGV format. In testing the audio in Firefox, much to my surprise, I found that it worked perfectly with the WAV file that I created. In basic form here’s the code:Īnd this is what it looks like in Google Chrome. Using the HTML5 page creation process above, I’m going to set up the code for the audio element. The process for embedding audio is very similar. The acid test is ALWAYS testing the code live. This was a valuable lesson in not trusting the preview in web design software.
It didn’t work in the Dreamweaver CS6 preview, so I uploaded it to my server to test it within Firefox online and when I did so, it worked. Next, here’s the code that one would use to play back the video in multiple browsers, including Firefox: There are multiple conversion programs available to do that, such as Miro or Media Converter. First off, we need to convert the video into the OGV format. This is because Firefox is using the OGG format, which is different from other browsers. In the preview above, we see the error message: Video Format or MIME type not supported. Note that the controls tag will create a control bar underneath the video.Īll’s well until we try to use Firefox. Here’s what the video will look like in Google Chrome. To insert a straight video into your page, the code would look like the above. In the dialog box above, choose the following settings:Ĭlick on the Create button to create your page. In the example below, I’ve created an HTML5 page with no content. To do so, I’m going to use Adobe Dreamweaver CS6. One thing to make sure of before using the video is that when you create it, that’s HTML5 compliant. Setting up a video is fairly straightforward. In this section, we’ll look at an issue with Firefox. While the video element has been standardized, the codecs vary, so support will vary, as well. Like the audio element, the video element can be controlled with HTML or Javascript and styled with CSS. HTML5 allows you to embed the video element directly onto a web page. Note that while the HTML5 specification covers audio, it doesn’t cover which codecs are supported, meaning that codecs and support for them varies with browsers and platforms.
The audio element can be controlled with HTML or Javascript and styled with CSS. With the audio element, you can add audio directly to a web page. In this article, we’re going to look at the process of embedding audio and video files in an HTML5 page.
