I am wondering if the HTML5 <video>
tag now supports playback of .avi format video files.
The HTML5 video format capabilities include three options to play: MP4, WebM, and Ogg.
wmv" video files are not supported by any browser. That is the only way for WMV video files.
You can open AVI files with various video players, such as Microsoft Movies & TV (Windows), Microsoft Windows Media Player (Windows), Apple QuickTime Player (macOS), Adobe Premiere Pro (multiplatform), and VLC media player (multiplatform).
Short answer: No. Use WebM or Ogg instead.
This article covers just about everything you need to know about the <video>
element, including which browsers support which container formats and codecs.
