Workshop: Locate and watch any video file online

There’s a confusing variety of video formats used on the web, but Miro can play them all

Many people now watch video on the internet, from quick clips on Youtube to full-length films and TV programmes using software such as the BBC’s iPlayer.

However, the trouble with digital video is that there are so many different file formats used to store and distribute video material ­ Windows Media, Apple Quicktime and MP4 to name just a few ­that you may end up with a separate player for each.

Miro is a program that attempts to simplify this and make it easy to find and play video material on the internet. It acts as a ‘universal’ video player that can play all the main video file formats and enables you to simultaneously search different websites for video material that you might find interesting.

Here’s how to download and use Miro.
