Prevents the browser from playing video if it is not supported.
<script type="text/javascript">
function understands_video() {
return !!document.createElement(‘video’).canPlayType; // boolean
}
if ( !understands_video() ) {
// Must be older browser or IE.
// Maybe do something like hide custom
// HTML5 controls. Or whatever…
videoControls.style.display = ‘none’;
}
</script>
