One of the most powerful feature of HTML5 is supports for audio and video tags this feature allows you to reduce the third party plug-ins  like silverlight and flash. HTML5 programmers has really done nice job  by developing these tags. These video and audio tags contains predefined controls but I want to develop custom controls using javascript according to real time requirements. Creating custom video play and pause buttons are very easy when compare to creating stop, forward, reverse buttons and also developed the custom audio controls to increase and decrease the volume. One more think can also develop same code in jquery. Lets begin
Custom Video controls Using JavaScript

The supported video formats of HTML5 video tags are MP4, Quick Time, AVI, OGG. In these MP4 is most popular and most of the video editing tools and mobile devices supports MP4 format. Quick time is for mac users and we can also use on any platform. OGG is a new one compressed file format which maintains the quality of MP4. Do not use Flash (SWF).

Browser Support
  • No standard across browsers
  • IE and Safari currently only support MP4
