[WebPub] quick question about video

Wed Jul 23 13:49:49 EDT 2014

Hello,

I have a short HTML file below and a mp4 file (tt.mp4). Right now the video can only play on Safari.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<body>
<p>test<p>
<video id="v1" controls autoplay>
  <source src="tt.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
</body>
</html>

I have two questions below.

  1.  How can I make the video to play on any other browsers, such as firefox or IE?
  2.  How can I use this video as background and put some text on top of it through HTML?

I would greatly appreciate it if you could please help me with one of the questions.

Thank you very much in advance.
