Better players make for better video

By Julie Starr | Published: March 9, 2008
A couple of lines of advice about getting video to work on news sites from US photojournalist Colin Mulvaney, as found on Newsgang. 1. Fix the players. Too may newspaper websites have crappy video players that take too long to load, don’t work with all browsers, have no full screen mode, don’t allow you to embed code or share with social media sites. Video need to be tagged so search engines can find them.
