Is it possible to detect whether a html page is being accessed by a mobile device (ios or android) to allow me to dictate a lower resolution video to play that won't be so critical on a smaller screen, particularly if people are using mobile network that would potentially struggle on playing a higher resolution video.

Yes. The function is called: IsMobile()
if(IsMobile()){
PlayLowRes....
}else{
PlayHighRes....
}

Thanks for the reply, just another quick query, are the videos loaded as and when they are required or do they get all preloaded at the start meaning if I have a reference to two videos, one low res and one high res, that they would both be preloaded making the waiting time at the start as you access the webpage extended?

Mobile phones don't preload anything.

Seem to be having a slight issue when on mobiles, particularly ios. I have videos auto play which work fine on desktop, but when viewed on mobile the videos seem to show on a popout window that on ios doesn't auto play so the user has to click 'play' on the screen. As I am using the videos as transitions between two images it kinda ruins the flow if the user is prompted to again to play the video. Also I don't seem to be able to auto play a second video using the on end function.
Is there anyway round this issue?

Nope, there is no way to auto start video or audio on any mobile phone. We've tried.
