HTML MULTIMEDIA
WHAT IS MULTIMEDIA?
 Multimedia comes in many different formats. It can
be almost anything you can hear or see, like
images, music, sound, videos, records, films,
animations, and more.
 Web pages often contain multimedia elements of
different types and formats.
MULTIMEDIA FORMATS
 Multimedia elements (like audio or video) are stored
in media files.
 The most common way to discover the type of a
file, is to look at the file extension.
 Multimedia files have formats and different
extensions like: .wav, .mp3, .mp4, .mpg, .wmv, and
.avi.
There are many video formats out there.
The MP4, WebM, and Ogg formats are supported
by HTML.
The MP4 format is recommended by YouTube.

MULTIMEDIA TAGS
 HTML allows adding different multimedia files on
your website by various multimedia tags. These
tags include:
 <audio> for displaying a audio file on the web page,
 <video> for displaying a video file on the web page,
 <embed> for embedding multimedia files on the
web page,
 <object> for embedding multimedia files on the web
page.
 <iframe> for embedding other web pages.
HTML AUDIO
 The HTML <audio> element is used to play an audio
file on a web page.
How It Works
 The controls attribute adds audio controls, like play,
pause, and volume.
 The <source> element allows you to specify
alternative audio files which the browser may choose
from. The browser will use the first recognized
format.
 The text between the <audio> and </audio> tags
will only be displayed in browsers that do not support
the <audio> element.
 <audio controls autoplay>
<source src="horse.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
<source src="horse.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
Your browser does not support the audio
element.
</audio>
 To start an audio file automatically, use
the autoplay attribute
 Add muted after autoplay to let your audio file
start playing automatically (but muted)
HTML VIDEO
 The HTML <video> element is used to show a video on a web
page.
 How it Works
 The controls attribute adds video controls, like play, pause,
and volume.
 It is a good idea to always include width and height attributes. If
height and width are not set, the page might flicker while the
video loads.
 The <source> element allows you to specify alternative video
files which the browser may choose from. The browser will use
the first recognized format.
 The text between the <video> and </video> tags will only be
displayed in browsers that do not support the <video> element.
 To start a video automatically, use
the autoplay attribute
<video width="320" height="240" autoplay>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4
">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg"
>
Your browser does not support the video
tag.
</video>
Add muted after autoplay to let your video
start playing automatically (but muted)
