html5-video

I'm building a simple page to display videos uploaded from my iphone using the html5 video tag. if you're watching it with chrome you probably see this video is presented horizontal, although it's not- try to download it or watching it from safari (haven't tried another browsers). I havne't found anything on the net mention this problem, is it a known chrome bug? does this tag any attribute that I can change to display it properly? Thanks. Edit: looks like this also happen in IE It's an encoding issue from iPhones. I downloaded the video and it was still displayed horizontally using mplayer.

Is it possible to detect the aspect ratio of an HTML5 video element?

So i thought that user agent was the best way to identify because the words ipad and android are present in their respective UA header. What is the best way to accomplish my goal?

I understand that HTML5 video is way more complicated than its proponents would like us to believe. Safari uses the proprietary H.264 codec, whereas Firefox, Chrome and Opera all support the open-source Theora. Internet Explorer doesn't support either, so needs a fallback, such as .mov or Flash. I found a superb guide somewhere that put together a step-by-step guide for HTML5 on all these browsers, but I can't find it anywhere. Very annoying :( What's the best way to implement HTML5 video so that all these browsers are covered? (Unfortunately, Flash is not an option.) Edit: Ok, from what I've
