Google started allowing users to upload any type of file to Google Docs in January 2010, but until recently you couldn’t watch the videos you stored in-browser. Now a built-in player supports video files up to 1 GB with a maximum resolution of 1920×1080. Flash is required to stream the following supported files:
· WebM files (Vp8 video codec and Vorbis Audio codec)
· .MPEG4, 3GPP and MOV files – (h264 and mpeg4 video codecs and AAC audio codec)
· .AVI (many cameras use this format – typically the video codec is MJPEG and audio is PCM)
· .MPEGPS (MPEG2 video codec and MP2 audio)
· .WMV
· .FLV (Adobe – FLV1 video codec, MP3 audio)
