HTML video Tag

How to add video to your HTML web page

HTML provides <video> tag to embed video in your web page. It's a paired tag so you need to add both opening and closing video tags.

Within video tag, <source> tag is used to provide source of video using src attribute. type attribute specifies type of video file.

Example:
<video>
<source src="nature.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

This tag is compatible with MP4, WebM, and Ogg file types. To avoid video codecs and browser compatibility issues, it's best that you add multiple sources to the video. If the browser cannot show the video, it will display the text you write between them.

controls

<video controls>
<source src="nature.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

poster

<video controls poster="image.jpg">
<source src="nature.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

<video controls poster="image.jpg" width="400" height="300">
