Introduction
MediaElementPlayer: HTML5 <video>
and <audio>
player
A complete HTML/CSS audio/video player built on top MediaElement.js
. Many great HTML5 players have a completely separate Flash UI in fallback mode, but MediaElementPlayer.js uses the same HTML/CSS for all players.
MediaElement.js
is a set of custom Flash plugins that mimic the HTML5 MediaElement API for browsers that don't support HTML5 or don't support the media codecs you're using.
Instead of using Flash as a fallback, Flash is used to make the browser seem HTML5 compliant and enable codecs like H.264 (via Flash) on all browsers.
In general, MediaElement.js
supports IE11+, MS Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, iOS 8+ and Android 4.0+.
It is strongly recommended to read the entire documentation and check the demo
folder to get the most out of this package. Visit [here](docs) to start.
* IMPORTANT NOTE for Safari users (Jun 8, 2017)
Since Sierra version, autoplay
policies have changed. You may experience an error if you try to execute play
programmatically or via autoplay
attribute with MediaElement, unless muted
attribute is specified.
