Comment on Video Tag Embed With Fallbacks by Verdi

The easiest way to encode your video for the iphone/ipod is to use quicktime pro (or quicktime x in mac os x) and use the ipod preset. Apple has improved it a great deal over the years – it deinterlaces, keeps the right aspect ratio and is smart about the bit rate it uses.

I was looking at Video for Everybody and found your site too. Using the VFE site, the “download the mp4″ link needs to be clicked for the video to play in the iPhone. On your site in the iPhone, the video appears with a play arrow and the quick time logo. When I use either code in the iPhone, I get a crossed out play arrow and the quick time logo, and have to click a provided download link. I have checked the code, so I think I may have encoded the mp4 in a format that the iPhone doesn’t want to play right away. Do you have some suggestions for the mp4 encoding settings? I use Heywatch to encode, and have tried their iPod, MP4 H264, and Flash H264 encode settings. Thanks!

John – it’s not fixed in 2.7.1. All versions except 2.8.4 are affected. They just haven’t gotten to you yet. I had 8 sites running old versions and 7 were affected.

the other thing I noticed is that the only user that shows up on the source page with a class of administrator is our legitimate admin log on.

May be they fixed this in 2.71 or they hid it another way.

We are running 2.71 and when I look at the source of the users page there is no code for superusers for any of the existing users.

Is there a different method for 2.71?

Also the auto-upgrades with WP are usually not a problem but if you are using plugins an upgrade may cause some plugins to fail if they are not compatible.
