    Yes, HTML5 has turned out to be quite a boondoggle. Lots of browsers have no native support for H.264 due to costly licensing requirements. For all I know VLC basically pirates the capability, but that's another topic. The key is that Google and others have pulled H.264 codecs from Chrome, the Android browser, etc. and use WebM and other alternatives instead.

    What is this "APP" that you installed?

    -dilettante- I took a look at the link and it asks for VLC even using IE on Windows! Strange.
    Here is one:
    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=PA.CSV2
    $4.99 but not too bad if you need it. There may be others cheaper or free too.
    Good luck!

    THanks for the link...working great
