Best not to mix up the video and img tags.
I would place your images (PNG,JPG) in the document itself if you have access to them from the desktop.
If you want to retreive you image/poster from a different source, I would use the image tag with the correct height and width:
Code:
<! Place the code in a Placeholder HTML body with the correct height and width-->
<img src="https://initiostar.co.uk/assets/poster.png" alt="My Poster" height="500px" width="500px">
You can call this image direct from a browser e.g. https://initiostar.co.uk/assets/Poster.png - both examples are in an updated document.
Best practise would be to create a folder on your server where you gather together assets (videos, images, PDFs etc.) you have created. The reason I do this for videos, is that it saves Xara struggling to upload 60-80MB files when your FTP program does it with ease.
Re my video format, I was mucking about with resolutions to try to fix a squashing problem on the mobile site with one of the earlier players I was using, so I'll have a good cleanout and re-render them properly.
I would leave your video as it stands, unless you have access to a good video editor. Out of curiosity I loaded into my LightWorks and it has retained the original format 576p 4:3 AVCHD, but still renders in MP4 in a browser. For that reason alone I would stay well clear of editing again.
Hopefully this gets you over the line with a working page.
