As I mentioned above I want to be able to play it in a HTML<video> tag. As
in a video tag it can be only 3 formats. I can't play avi, so that's why I
try to convert it.
OK, then convert to a compatible format upload that (however to fully
support the video tag, you'll need multiple formats to match what the
browsers want- mp4/ogg/webm).
BTW, because of the way ogg containers are constructed, you should have
better luck with them than mp4.
I have a server with files. Not all of them are HTML<video> tag
compatible. I want to be able to play them in a browser, but I don't
want to keep another copy with another format on the server.
Just do it, life will be much simpler.
And I can not convert them and have the converted copy either because I
must be able to give back the original file to the user.Don't erase the
original file?
https://web.dev/media/ has some useful info about using the video tag.
You're much better off pre-converting the files. Is there any specific
reason you can't do that?
Later,
z!
