changing source on html5 video tag

Question

i\'m trying to build a video player, that works everywhere. so far i\'d be going with:

Answer 1

Modernizr worked like a charm for me.

What I did is that I didn't use . Somehow this screwed things up, since the video only worked the first time load() was called. Instead I used the source attribute inside the video tag -> and used Modernizr to determine what format the browser supported.

Hopefully this will help you :)

If you don't want to use Modernizr , you can always use CanPlayType().
