Even better, install CCCC with MPCHC and never need another video player again.

It's not really about me. It's about enabling the video to reach as wide an audience as possible. Asking people to google for what player to download, download it and install it, then redownload the video, means 98% (made that up) will just sigh and move on without bothering. It taking literally 5 minutes to download before it can be run also does not help. Youtube has solved all these problems - why not use it?

You can view .webm directly in recent Firefox or Chrome versions on Windows, you an also view .webm in IE9 and above provided you have the right codecs installed. It's a perfectly acceptable format.

It doesn't work on the browser that comes with Windows. That makes it undesirable if you wish to reach the largest audience with the least friction. Why restrict the audience if you don't have to? What is gained by using .webm that would offset the reduced audience?

It is gradually becoming the de facto standard for video on web. It can already be viewed directly in all modern browsers even outside of YouTube. It is usable on platforms where flash is now dead (the number of which is increasing). Vast (vast! even on Windows) majority of the audience don't use IE. It doesn't have patent issues. YouTube is (very slowly) moving to .webm too, after all they were the main reason for it. I for one like videos that are don't all depend on a single platform and that I can download without resorting to hacks. And that I can view in my browser more seamlessly than what YouTube's flash interface can do. With this kind of thinking we'd still be using $FORMAT where $FORMAT is the first format that became the de-facto standard in a particular area.

I suppose it depends on whether one wishes to promote a new video standard or share a video about D :-)

Chrome on your Samsung tablet should play it fine. There is also VLC for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.videolan.vlc.betav7neon I agree the more reach the better but those are some immediate solutions for you personally.

And there is something magical about digital media. Adding a copy to YouTube doesn't mean your webm copy will vanish.

I guess. I've had vlc installed for so many years I never even consider that someone might not be able to play a given media file of any type. Media Player Classic (http://mpc-hc.org/) might be more to your tastes perhaps.

I have appreciated the "An approach for energy consumption analysis of programs using LLVM" talk, they even have an annotation that statically enforces a certain function to consume less than a specified amount of energy (expressed in pJ). The "SPARK 2014: Hybrid Verification using Proofs and Tests" talk is nice, but I have seen it already elsewhere. Bye, bearophile

Thanks. It worked. To anyone interested, you open the VLC app, click the cone in the upper left corner, select Open Network Stream and copy-paste the address of the video.
