Please give latex code to insert a video in latex and hence video should be played in pdf. I wrote this

\documentclass[12pt,landscape]{article}
\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{verbose,letterpaper}
\usepackage{movie15}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
 Whispering-gallery mode in a quarter circle:
\begin{figure}[ht]
 \includemovie[
  poster,
  text={\small(srs.mp4)}
 ]{6cm}{6cm}{srs.mp4}
\end{figure}

It is compiling but when I open pdf it comes that "Pdf contains media which requires an additional player". What should I do to get it correct this error. Please tell

Welcome to TeX.SX! Which PDF viewer did you try? You may need to use Adobe Reader. – Torbjørn T. Jul 05 '14 at 11:47
I used adobe reader – shivam Jul 05 '14 at 11:48
Give me any alternative method to run a simple video in latex. That would also be fine. Thanks – shivam Jul 05 '14 at 11:51

There is a package called media9 which is newer than movie15. But I know very little of these things, so I cannot help any more I'm afraid. – Torbjørn T. Jul 05 '14 at 12:00
You can also try to convert your mp4 file into swf – Mario S. E. Jul 05 '14 at 12:23
@ShivamJain Suggestion: Use swf files and use a recent version of Adobe Reader. – hola Jul 05 '14 at 12:49
That works. But it plays automatically.Is there some control to play it when we click on it? – shivam Jul 06 '14 at 08:11
Flash support has discontinued from Dec 2020. Media9 no longer works as above. Fixes are in Media9 Alternatives – Tejas Shetty May 15 '21 at 06:49
