Hey John R,
Just thought I’d let you know, FYI…I figured out the solution today. You were right about just trying .mp4 files but even that suggestion needed more definition and research. So what I ended up finally doing was using Handbrake, tweaking the video / audio settings some, importing my finished .mov files, compressing, uploading to my website with just a link to those files and BAM…works across tablets, desktops, Samsung phones without having to download..looks and sounds great.
I spend all day on this and it finally paid off and since you got me started on the right foot I thought I’d let you know the outcome.
thx again.
