Posted January 6, 20187 yr I have videos for download in downloads app. I’ve been getting hell from folks who have iPhone or iPad. I brought it up here and the general consensus was that the issue was due to wrong format. I NOW have tried every format I can using HandBrake to convert format including “Apple” “legacy Apple” “iPhone” etc MP4, mv4, mov small file size, large file size... makes no difference the videos NEVER play on iPhone. They try for a second then crap out Anybody have any any experience getting videos to play in downloads app? Is it the app itself the issue here?
January 6, 20187 yr As a test, try downloading this MP4 video and putting it in Downloads:http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html The above video definitely works on my iPhone device but I haven't tried it in Downloads.
January 6, 20187 yr Author the bunny video does play on the link provided above using my iphone but when I add the video to downloads it craps out! Why?? I tried these settings for a video (see screen shot) the video plays on my iphone but NOT out of downloads. Something seems funky with downloads. What am I missing here?
January 6, 20187 yr Downloads won’t play any videos in the browser because it sends the whole file to the browser as download and not as content item to display ( same will happen with Images , music ...) youll need a custom plugin to change this behavior
