== Viewing ogg files on iPad ==

How to play Ogg Theora/Vorbis files directly on iPad?

:When I try I get the message 'open with Dropbox' for example with [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a3/Surya_namaskar.ogg Surya namaskar]. Any suggestion? [[User:Wouterhagens|Wouter]] ([[User talk:Wouterhagens|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 22:57, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
::You need to download VLC app from the app store, and then download the file. (Apple really doesn't like theora/vorbis) [[User:Bawolff|Bawolff]] ([[User talk:Bawolff|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 06:49, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

== No audio/video with encrypted connection? ==

Is it just me, or does audio/video not work with an encrypted (https) connection? On my side (Mac OS X 10.6, Safari 5.1, Wikipedia with standard settings / standard skin) the player works fine with http-connection, but fails to load any audio or video file over https. Is it a known problem? --[[User:Tkarcher|Tkarcher]] ([[User talk:Tkarcher|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 18:21, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Here, with Windows XP + (Firefox | Chrome/native), OGG and OGV files play just fine over HTTPS.

== Order of operating systems ==

Why is the order of the links opositly to the circulation of these OS?
If most users use Windows and least use Unix, wouldn't it be a good idea to place the WIndows Button on the Top of all, followed by the MacOS one? --[[Special:Contributions/93.221.189.56|93.221.189.56]] 18:31, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

== Playing ogg video on current firefox ==

[[File:Uscoastaurora iss 20120208 2HD web.ogv|thumb|clicking this preview does not do anything for me]] As the article suggests, my current FF 19.0.2 (Win XP) should be able to play, say, [[:File:Uscoastaurora iss 20120208 2HD web.ogv]] without further measures. But when I click the preview image, nothing happens. What prerequisites do I need to meet in order to play ogg video inside Firefox ? -- Juergen [[Special:Contributions/91.52.168.227|91.52.168.227]] 23:09, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

== Link to file origin ==

[[File:Wikimedia Commons screenshot of the newly modified Java player for ogg files, Display 1 sole file with description .jpg|200px|right]]
With the newly modified Java applet for playback ogg files, I cannot get a backlink with Win 7 when I open an <code>.ogg</code> file, that is clicking on the <code>MENU</code> I do not get it as a link anymore as some month before (only "Title"). This should be fixed. Who developed it anyway (Oracle or Wikimedia internally)? -- [[User:Mattes]] 16:57, 7 April 2013 (UTC) Still not improved :-( --[[User:Mattes|Mattes]] ([[User talk:Mattes|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 15:47, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

== The Java player ==

When I try watching [[:File:Apelsin spreadthesign.ogv]] in IE8 the Java player (which doesn't work for me) appears, while when I try watching [[:File:How Open Access Empowered a 16-Year-Old to Make Cancer Breakthrough.ogv]], it just prompts me to download the file. Why is there a difference?

Given that the Java player doesn't work, I'd suggest prompting for download on every video in unsupported browsers. [[User:Skalman|Skalman]] ([[User talk:Skalman|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 11:49, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
:One has sound, one doesn't. Its due to a rather silly typo in the code (Fix currently at [[gerrit:108646]] but pending review). [[User:Bawolff|Bawolff]] ([[User talk:Bawolff|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 06:47, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

== Wrong character encoding of URL provided to media player ==

The video [[:File:Hallands%C3%A5sen_TBM_model_-_01.webm]] won't play in the online Commons media player. The media player opens, but nothing is shown. In Firefox or Chromium, I can right click on the (empty) video area and select "Show video" or "Open video in new tab", respectively, which will let the internet browser open the media file directly without the Commons media player. However, doing so gives a '''404 Not Found''', because the URL (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/0/08/Hallands%C3%83%C2%A5sen_TBM_model_-_01.webm/Hallands%C3%83%C2%A5sen_TBM_model_-_01.webm.480p.webm) is probably not encoded in the right way. Replacing "Ã¥" with "å" in the URL seems to help. I guess that this is why the Commons media player isn't able to play the file. The problem can also be seen with other files with non ASCII file names, for example [[:File:Gierfähre Rathen.webm]]. --[[User:Luen|Luen]] ([[User talk:Luen|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 13:21, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

== video test page ==

I don't think its appropriate to link this from the help page, but in case its useful to anyone, I'll mention here. I've created a page: http://tools.wmflabs.org/bawolff/video_test.htm which tests browser video support (of Free formats). There's a number of videos on that page. If any of them play then in theory videos should work on commons. If stuff works on that page but not on commons, then its a bug. [[User:Bawolff|Bawolff]] ([[User talk:Bawolff|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 01:56, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

:[[toollabs:bawolff]] is a perfectly legit WMF interwiki from my POV. However, Chrome "click to play" fails miserably starting to play without my permission, Chrome dislikes the for W2K or Java 6 compatibility last free JRE 6.45 (existing security fixes only available for paying customers), and looking at the page over GPRS is <code language="RFC2119">NOT RECOMMENDED</code>. Details (current Chrome on current Windows 7 64 over slow GPRS mobile):
*Commons video: Empty. Inspect element: visbility hidden. Presumably as it should be.
*Native ogg: Player shown. Click to play: No effect, hangs at begin, nothing clickable (buttons don't work.)
*Native WebM: Started without permission, stop+restart work, hangs at 0:09, seek/play from 0 to 0:44 fails.
*Cortado ogg: Started without permission, stop+restart work, hangs at hangs at 0%, clobbers Chrome scrolling, very evil.
*Object ogg 1: Started without permission, stop+restart barely work, hangs at 00:00, seek/play from 0 to 5:06 has no effect.
*Object ogg 2: Started without permission, hangs after stop, hangs at 00:05, seek/play from 0 to 0:24 has no effect.
*Object WebM: Waits for permission, hangs (click has no effect.)

== No sound for embedded video? ==

[[File:Acela passes through Kingston Station in Rhode Island.ogv|thumb|right]]
Why does the embedded player show my video (on the left) without sound? When I use Google Chrome to play the "Original file" directly by the browser, it can play sound. But when I use the embedded player or to play any of the download varieties generated by Commons, the sound is disabled. Did I do anything wrong with my video file? [[User:Z22|Z22]] ([[User talk:Z22|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 17:13, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

:Yeah, I have the same problems. I tried to convert OPUS (audio) to Vorbis, that works as it should with Mplayer and Windows Media Player on my box, but [https://trac.mpc-hc.org/ticket/4149 fails for MPC-HC]. I also tried WebM, but that was worse. My best suggestion based on these tests, avoid OPUS like a plague in 2014, it is very far from ready for prime time. &ndash;[[User:Be..anyone|Be..anyone]] ([[User talk:Be..anyone|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 12:49, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

:::I changed to use on of the "online" options suggested by Commons instead of the Windows options to convert my original file. I uploaded now and all derivatives seem working with audio now.

::::It was from the different conversion tool.

:::::I do not use opus but I use direct conversion software that I bought for $300. It directly transcodes .mp4 to .ogv with sound, although it takes a long time.

== about the videos format ==

It would be easier if while playing any videos , it would ask in what video extension the user wants to play. So the user could just play it easily. And the samething would be for sound files.

@Julito João Balança: Can you please tell use which video you are trying to see? Yann (talk) 10:45, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Should there also have a subpage for Nintendo Switch cases?

[edit]

I guess that the web browser on Switch may also have different capability problems than what we already listed? Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 21:48, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think mostly we don't know... —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 12:02, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@TheDJ For these months, I've looked up some NS-related Github repos, and there looks like a possible way to play (if you don't afraid that your Nintendo Account being banned, and believe, I didn't try so):
  1. Install Atmosphère hacking system
  2. Then install NXMP
  3. As NXMP doesn't support OGG/OGV/OGA... yet, downloaded files should convert to MPG using e.g. [1]
  4. Place the generated MPG files to (manually created?) video folder, and finally play em!
Personally, I'd love to ask NXMP's repo to seek if they can support our formats. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 05:27, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Brooke Vibber, Jorchr, Stang, and YFdyh000: any suggestions on this question? Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 11:04, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It sounds like this is a very niche group and may not have the demand to provide an additional one. In addition, why it will not support those common container formats? YFdyh000 (talk) 17:28, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don’t think we should link people to hacking systems that might get possibly banned by Nintendo. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 10:17, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TheDJ So, is there any ways, without any hacking to NS devices, to play our video formats used here? Anyway, I, as the submitter of this section,  Support on creating such a subpage, as I don't see any reason the Horizon OS (that the Switch uses) can be considered Unix (or at least Unix-like).
