I was thinking what is different from two months ago. .htaccess!
So what did I do in there? What do I need to do?

My review would say, it may be minimal but so far it works better than anything else out there.

Turned out to be a very simple matter of having deleted all my mime type lines in .htaccess file.

I just tried the WP built in HTML5 player with the same results. Works just fine in CHROME and wont play the video in FF or IE.
It is h.264 file. Tried it straight from moviemaker and then used HANDBREAK to render it again with same results. And why would not the 100 or so older mp4s that worked on all browsers last week not work today?
Thanx

Thanx for answering!!
It is happening in Magazine Pro. JWplayer 2.1.1 and WP 3.7.1
It was all working fine since Sept 2012 when I switched from FLV to HTML5. Then sometime over the past week none of the 100 or so MP4s work in anything other than CHROME.
I do not think it is JWplayer as I tried another html5 payer and it did pretty much the same – works in chrome but not IE or FF – but didnt even load the player or the video.

Opposite problem!
I have the email print buttons on one website and they don’t show on my other website and gosh, I checked and everything seems just the same except the mission email and print. Though I would like just the email button.
Anyone know whats going on?
Thanks

I don’t understand.
After endless googling I just cannot find how to add an image to the onboard WP html5 player. One would assume everyone using it would put an image to go with the video? Not just a black screen. Why am I having so much trouble with this?
Thanx

Not sure if it is the EXCERPTS plugin or Mag Premium.
But off hand you don’t know of any trick to HIDE the code?
Thanx

Have another problem. Using Mag Premium. The line of code shows on the excerpts of the front page.
rackjite.com to view.
thanx, kicker

hmmm… I am at work and havent tried it.
The content is in a fixed table column 300px wide, not a div.
How should I go about applying?
Thanx again
Kicker!

I don’t understand.
Per usual I probably asked the wrong question. ??

here is the short code for the HTML5 WP player
[video width="376" height="272" mp4="https://myvideo.mp4"][/video]

I want to add a picture to the video so it is not a black screen. Which I would assume everyone wants to do in every case.

The picture I want to use is at https://mypicture.jpg

How do I add that to the shortcode?

Thanx again

ModularBase! That plugin is the ticket!! Thanks A BUNCH.

I followed directions and it doesn’t work. Do I just paste it in anywhere in the functions.php file? Or find the same area and change things? Thanx kicker

`Control Excerpt Length using Filters

By default, excerpt length is set to 55 words. To change excerpt length to 20 words using excerpt_length filter, add the following code to functions.php file in your theme:

function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
return 20;
}
add_filter( ‘excerpt_length’, ‘custom_excerpt_length’, 999 );

The new mobile themes that are in the new updated version of WP.
How does one make them work on phones and tablets while keeping the regular theme on PCs? What am I missing?
Something big I would guess! ??
thanx kicker

Okay, i put it up and did let the theme guy know too.
What you see in the top left corner of the article window is the thumbnail of teh 472px graphic. Before the updates it was full 472 above. I set FEATURED GRAPHIC the same in the editor as i did before.
thanx for the help!!!
