Media Players

There are several media players (i.e. containers) that are available out there. Its up to you to adopt one that fits your needs. Although portable media players for mobile apps are becoming more and more popular, this page is strictly about making sure your video transcoded material fits into some kind of container, so that your audience can copy and paste your embed container onto their web sites for their pleasure of watching your personal project!
