Supported File Formats
Oracle Content Management can display or play the content of a wide variety of files directly in the web client or mobile apps.
Here are a few best practices:
- It’s best to use MP4 formats.
- Files over 10 MB aren’t full-text indexed.
- Maximum upload size is controlled by a setting on the General settings page in the system administration area.
- File names are limited to the characters and length supported by Windows and Macintosh.
Supported Audio and Video File Formats
Web client: When viewing the web client in a browser that supports the HTML5 <video> element, the supported video formats play directly in the Oracle Content Management interface. When viewing the web client in other browsers and viewing unsupported video formats, you must download the file and view it outside the Oracle Content Management interface.
The following formats are supported for viewing directly:
- Chrome—MP4, WEBM, and OGG
- Firefox—MP4, WEBM, and OGG
- Safari—MP4
iPhone/iPad app:
- Videos formats—MP4, M4V, MOV
- Audio formats—MP3, AAC, WAV (for iPhone voice memos), MOV
Some MOV formats might not be viewable.
Android app:
- Videos formats—3GP, MP4, WEBM, MKV
- Audio formats—MKV, OGG, IMY, OTA, RTTTL, RTX, MP3, 3GP, FLAC, MID, XMF, MXMF, AAC, M4A, WAV
