All modern browsers will play video (Theora and WebM) and audio (Vorbis and MP3) files from Wikipedia, no modifications needed.

On iOS, iPadOS, and older macOS devices, software decoding will be used. This might be a bit slow compared to what you are used to on such devices. Internet Explorer is NOT supported.

You can try your player using the Wikimedia Commons Sound and Video files.
