HTML 5* Open/Closed Format* Powerful* Not Ubiquitious

Works on...Firefox 3.5+Chrome 3.0+Safari 3.1+Opera 10.5+

and on...iPhoneiPod TouchiPadAndroid OS

<video>is only going to become moreubiquitious in the future andis already relevant for playingvideo on mobile devices.

Format Wars

* h.264 (closed)* Ogg Vorbis (open)

HTML5 Video Supports AnyMedia.It’s the browser that dictateswhich formats are played.

Workflow WinsHTML 5

<video width="480" height="380" controls> <source src="trolololololololol.ogv" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"'> <source src="trolololololololol.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'></video>

Basic Video Embeduse the browser’s native video controls

<div id="player"> <video width="480" height="380" class="ecard"> <source src="trolololololololol.ogv" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"'> <source src="trolololololololol.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.42E01E, mp4a.40.2"'> </video> <nav class="player_controls"> <a href="#" class="play_button">Play<span></span></a> <a href="#" class="mute_button">Mute<span></span></a> <progress value="0" class="play_progress"> <span></span> </progress> <progress value="0" class="load_progress"> <span></span> </progress> </nav> </div>

Video With Player UI Expressedin HTML Markup

/* =CONTROLS ------------------------------------------------------ */ .player_controls { bottom: -20px; height: 70px; left: 0; position: absolute; width: 480px; z-index: 10; }

/* =PLAY/MUTE BUTTONS ------------------------------------------------------ */ .player_controls a.play_button { bottom: 0; left: -38px; } .player_controls a.mute_button { bottom: 0; right: -38px; }

CSS to Style Player UI

$(’video’).get(0).play();

Javascript to Control Video

this would tell th

e

first video elem

ent

on your page to

start playing.

var _MEDIA = $(’#player video.ecard’).get(0);

$(’.play_button’).click(togglePlay);$(’.mute_button’).click(toggleMute);

function togglePlay(e) { if(_MEDIA.paused) { _MEDIA.play(); } else { _MEDIA.pause(); } return false;};function toggleMute(e) { if(_MEDIA.volume > 0) { _MEDIA.volume = 0; } else { _MEDIA.volume = 1; } return false;};

Javascript to Control Videoget the video element...

add some simple event listeners....

if paused play otherwise pause...

if it has volume mute otherwise turn on volume...

var video = $(’video’).get(0);

video.play();video.pause();video.paused; // Returns true if video is paused.video.ended; // Returns true if video is over.

video.volume; // Returns volume value (between 0-1)video.volume=0.5; // Sets volume value (between 0-1)

video.currentTime; // Current point of time in the video.video.length; // Returns the length in seconds.

video.seekable; // Returns true if supports seeking.video.playbackRate; // Allows you to rewind/fastforward.

Your standardHTML/CSS/JSworkflow handleseverything.

In Flash we do all of the legwork to build things that are trivial in the DOM.

Certain things whichmay be complex in Flashare trivial to implementin HTML as the DOMcan do all of the ‘heavy lifting’ for you.

Both technologies stillhave their purposes. It’simportant not to rallybehind technologies.

Use the right tool for the job be it HTML5 or Flash.
