How to play longer videos in html5 player?

I am trying to play a video file having Size: 2.1 GB, Duration: 06:10:58.17 and Bitrate: 797 kb/s

The file is in S3 storage and after downloading the video plays fine on VLC player desktop but not in html5 player.

In Chrome nothing happens as file doesn't exists: enter image description here

In Firefox it keeps on loading and nothing happens: enter image description here

Solution

  • The videos were created by Wowza and all the videos having duration more than 3 hours were not playing in html5 player. So, I have used wowza player to play these videos and it's working fine.
