How to play AVI video file format in HTML

I have tried the iframe and video tags but anytime when I open in the browser without playing the file it directly downloads the file .
I have my AVI file in PC storage

Ex :- <iframe src="E:\videos\first.avi" width="auto" height="auto"></iframe>

Answer 1
