Hello Chan,
please read about MOV video here: http://foliovision.com/wordpress/plugins/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/encoding#flash-only
WMV is a proprietary video format by Microsoft and it’s not HTML5 compatible, so it won’t play.
Thanks,
Martin
Hello Chan,
if you mean the table here: http://foliovision.com/ – The table says there is a plugin to play WMV on selected browser. I noticed we said it plays in HTML5 on IE9+, so I fixed that.
Thank you for letting us know.

Hi miragelimousine,
if you upgrade to FV WordPress Flowplayer 2.2.7, you will get the improved error message:
“WMV is not a HMTL5 video format. It might play on some devices, but you need to standardize to MP4!”
That’s how it is. We work on improving our encoding guide to be more practical, but you can have a look at the Handbrake software screenshots to see how to do it: http://foliovision.com/wordpress/plugins/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/encoding
Thanks,
Martin
