I’m curious if you have to have any specific AddTypes to the htaccess file? I’m using the same video types on my project and I cant get the video to play in my Android 2.0 browser. When I go to to the demo however linked on this page it plays fine.

I have added ogv, webm and mv4 to my htaccess and when I try to play my videos on my server it says cannot play.

Hi James, take a look at my follow-up tutorial, Building A Better HTML5 Video Player With Glow, for more information about this. As for your second question, I'm not sure what the question marks mean in your example but if I understood it correctly it looks like you want to use Math.Round(): Math.round((video.duration ? video.currentTime) ? 100) Hope that helps.
