The newer ones should run fine in Chromium with chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra installed. The older ones are unfortunately only avaiable as flv files. The new videos from 2011 will be encoded in webm (which should be playable in every browser [FF 4.0 is needed]) + h264 (m4v as blip.tv now converts automatically to it). As for the video tag. As far as I know chromium is loading and caching those videos when you add them with the video tag. That would produce high traffic on the server. (blip.tv in that case) So a link to the file would be better I think. Clicking the link should then open up the video in the internal browser video player. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
