Open video in default media player in HTML
Question
I am trying to open a video in my default media player. I have inserted video hyperlinks in my HTML document.
When I click on the hyperlink, instead of opening the video, it downloads the video.
I want the hyperlink to open the video in the user's default media player without downloading the video.
This is what I have so far:
<a href="file://F:\Users\Public\Videos\Sample Videos\Wildlife.wmv">Example tutorial video</a>
Please advise. Thank you.

That's simply not how you embed video in html5. This is:
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.

您不能不下载就打开默认媒体播放器，但是如果愿意，您可以只用html5视频播放器制作页面，如Mayers所说。

This is how you can use video tag in html5:
code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<video width="400" controls>
<source src="mov_bbb.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="mov_bbb.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
