How do I play a .SWF
file using the video.js
player?
I've played around with the code below, but I can not get it to work.
When I open the .swf
file directly (using open with IE), I then I am able to play the .swf
file that way.
JavaScript:
// path to location of swf-file
_V_.options.flash.swf = "video-js.swf";
// flashvars
_V_.options.flash.flashVars = {
file: "./ExportSWF/Recording.swf", //file to be played
autostart: "false",
provider: "http",
"http.startparam": "start"
};
// object params
_V_.options.flash.params = {
allowfullscreen: "true",
wmode: "transparent",
allowscriptaccess: "always"
};
HTML:
<video id="example_video_1" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" controls preload="none" width="400" height="300">

Reset to default 8 +25video.js
is an HTML5 video player.
However, the HTML5 <video>
tag currently only supports a limited number of formats:
- WebM
- Ogg Theora Vorbis
- Ogg Opus
- MP4 H.264
- MP3
- WAVE PCM
Some browsers may support a few additional formats, but that's implementation specific.
Please note that Adobe Flash swf
files are not included in that list as they cannot be played with <video>
tags, only <embed>
tags.
However, there are a few munity created extensions that may acplish what you're looking for: https://github./videojs/video-js-swf
https://github./videojs/video-js-swf this is used to make flash as per the creator's readme The light-weight Flash video player that makes Flash work like HTML5 video. This allows player skins, plugins, and other features to work with both HTML5 and Flash
