I seem to be having problems playing back video using the HTML5 video player. While the page works on both Firefox and Chrome, and appears to load in the Ignition browser, it does not play nor allows clicking on the play button. Is HTML5 video supported?

What’s the encoding on the problem video? Not all encodings are supported by the Chromium engine. (FWIW, Chrome supports a superset of Chromium, so you may find things that work in Chrome that don’t work in Chromium.)

Yeah, the Chromium engine doesn’t support h.264 and probably never will. ☹
