Embedding a video to HTML that does not have the .mp4 filename extension

315 views Asked by At

I changed the filename extension of my videos on the server from .mp4 to .zip. Now I want to embed the videos in my HTML web page, but it doesn't work due to the filename extension. I'm looking for a way to tell my front-end how to interpret the embedded file and read it as MPEG-4.

Why did you change the .mp4 to .zip? Video has pretty good compression already, and making it a zip file is unlikely to save you much (if any) in terms of the size of the object.
