On iPhone Safari an arrow pops up.

How can I have a Windows desktop computer do this?

No clue what that would be, not everyone has access to an iPhone.

By using a supprted format. Not every browser supports every video
format. You may need to provide the video as WebM as well.

my webcam saves files as *.mp4

I used to find a way to convert to *.ogg but don't remember it

how can I convert *mp4 to WebM ?

Perhaps you could search for handbrake video converter. I personally
use ffmpeg, but the command line is not for everyone.

I have Corel VideoStudio Pro 2020

Depending on the codecs used, you really should not have to use
anything other than mp4.

It would likely save some bandwidth if you were to re-encode your
videos regardless if you were to choose mp4 or webm.

webm would more than likely be the smallest if encoded in a similar
manner.

mp4 would likely be more portable as far as devices that would play
it.

If I recall correctly Safari on mobile devices is not updated, only
updates when the OS is updated. Which would mean that Safari is just
as old as the OS is, and more then likely way out of date compared
to chrome.

So in my opinion asking for help with Safari is like asking for help
with IE 6 … just not going to happen.

Found export WebM on Corel VideoStudio Pro 2020

there's a surprising number of Windows machine that barf all over mp4 containers.

I don't care, I'm not re-encoding videos for broken windows installs.

Not in my experience, they are either the same size or slightly larger
than h.264 in mp4.

Yep. Should be fine with Macs, Win 10, Android, and iOS with no
problems.

Safari development has nothing to do with Chrome, and Safari has many
features that Chrome will never have.

Ignoring a billion web users is idiotic.
