Can we stream a BrightCove video to our own HTML5 player?


We want to deliver BrightCove videos to an HTML player, autoplaying and muted. But the API only allows programmatic muting of videos in the Flash player. (BrightCove support says "Setting the audio volume of a video programmatically requires the use of the Flash-only Player API.")

I've tried copying the URL in the Quick Video Publish form for a video

enter image description here

But that just gets me a Flash player.

To get round this I'm wondering if it's possible to serve BrightCove videos to an HTML5 player we build ourselves? Do customers always have to use their players?
