Question

Video not working in IE9

Mar 9, 2012 7:50AM PST

Hi all,
I have placed a .mp4 video on the home page of a website and it plays in all browsers EXCEPT IE9 (as far as I know). Here is the code I used:
====
<video controls="controls" poster="images/videoimage.jpg" width="460" height="370">
<source src="http://ichspride.org/images/ICHS_1018.m4v" type="video/mp4">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://flashfox.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/flashfox.swf" width="460" height="370">
<param name="movie" value="http://flashfox.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/flashfox.swf">
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<param name="flashVars" value="controls=true;poster=images/videoimage.jpg;src=http://ichspride.org/images/ICHS_1018.m4v">
<img src="images/videoimage.jpg" width="460" height="370" alt="ICHS Video" />
</object>
</video>
=====
Do you have any suggestions, tips, or solutions? I would appreciate any feedback or help. THANK YOU!

Amy
