$video = get_post_meta($post->ID,'video_url', true); //default custom field
above is the custom field called video_url but its not allways a video format so I want to dedect first if its a video formar and Im using the following code:
$mimetypes = array('video/mov', 'video/flv', 'video/avi', 'video/avi', 'application/ogg', 'video/webm', 'video/mp4');
if (!empty($video) && in_array($video, $mimetypes) ) {
echo do_shortcode( $shortcode );
}
the shortcode will play it in html 5 video player.So when I remove && in_array($video, $mimetypes) it plays fine but I want to dedect first if its a mp4 or not.
Is it possible to do it in wordpress?
Thankyou.

If your variable $video give a URL of a video then you can explode() funcion it with "." and find the file type from it and if mp4 is found then process your request thereafter.

as I said above if I use onlyif (!empty($video) ) {without the&& in_array($video, $mimetypes)the video works fine but I have to dedect it first because of some other iframe codes given in the same metabox everything works fine the only thing is this..

Try to use strpos() or another php string search function.
in_array() doesn't works correct, cause, for example, your $video looks like so:
www.site.com/videos/video.mp4
And you $mimetypes array doesn't have this string inside
After that, your code will be so:
if (!empty($video) && strpos($video, 'mp4') !== false ) {
echo do_shortcode( $shortcode );
}
