Will one of you wizards kindly respond to this question on THQ, that has gone unanswered? Timothy Joseph Wood 19:59, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Unable to jump using the playback bar in videos
Regardless of which computer, internet browser or Wikipedia page I use, I can't jump in media files using the playback bar (or by any other means). Take for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Curiosity%27s_Seven_Minutes_of_Terror.ogv I may want to jump to see only the touchdown. Also, I may miss what he is saying for a second and want to go back, but it's not working. This error is very frustrating. I've made an entry at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T188701, and i hope it will be fixed soon. Mikael Häggström (talk) 07:49, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

Video with non-English Audio
Hi! Is there a PAG for or against including videos which are only useful with the accompanying audio which happens to be non-English? My own instinct is that such videos should not be included at all. Usedtobecool ☎️ 04:31, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Embedded video insist downloading rather than playback (on iOS mobile)
On iOS mobile device (Safari and Chrome), while playing Webm and ogv embedded in an Wikipedia article, it directs users to download the file rather than a simple playback (which is ridiculous for a >100Mb video). On Android (Chrome), while ogv works perfectly, Webm could only be played from the beginning, ignoring the time tag commands (Note: most users specify a starting time of the video so that it corresponds to relevant content to the article). The above issues does not happen on desktop computers. Is there a fix? -- love.wh  04:23, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Try the same thing on testwiki:, especially the playback part. There is an different audio/video player there (video.js, instead of Kaltura here). There is an ogv file at testwiki:Equivalence_principle, for example.--Snaevar (talk) 17:31, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Also, are you using the mobile app or the mobile website to access these? (If both, is it the same experience?) — xaosflux  Talk 17:38, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
 * For me, the sample Webm played from 41" and Ogv plays but from 0:00. Then I retried the Webm and it was at 0:00.  *scratches head*  Desktop site, Timeless skin, iPad Air, Safari, iOS12. Pelagic ( messages ) – (20:32 Sat 23, AEDT) 09:32, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Is it possible to display a playlist of videos?
This page doesn't mention playlists. Does Wikipedia not have an option to display several videos in a series, instead of displaying each video separately?

I know that video playlists can be created using JavaScript, but I don't know if Wikipedia has this feature. Jarble (talk) 18:20, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
