Description
Notes

Video file extensions

The list of video formats supported by default is: .mov, .mp4, .m4v, .ogv, .webm, .flv, .f4v

VideoJS will try to use the browser's native video player when available, and fall back to a Flash player for other formats if Flash is supported by the browser and Flash fallback is enabled below.

-

Audio file extensions

The list of audio formats supported by default is: aac, .flac, .mp3, .m4a, .oga, .ogg, .wav

VideoJS will try to use the browser's native video player when available, and fall back to a Flash player for other formats if Flash is supported by the browser and Flash fallback is enabled below.

-

Use Flash fallback
This setting determines whether to use Flash player if a video format is not natively supported by the browser. If enabled, VideoJS will be engaged for any file extension set in the video and audio extension lists (as above) without browser check.
Please note that Flash is not available in mobile browsers and discouraged in many desktop ones.

YouTube videos

Decide whether to use the VideoJS player for YouTube videos.

YouTube playlists are not yet supported by VideoJS.
