Video Playing Doubt

The details depend on different factors, such as the format\compression of the media files that you want to play, the control you use to playback the media file and the nature of your project.
You mentioned that the audio does not play on Google chrome.
Are you creating a server-side ASP.NET project to playback media files at server-side only?
Or are you trying to play the media file using HTML5 Video tag on server and client sides?
How exactly do you play the media file in your application? Which control you use?

In general, if the main issue is related to the format\compression of the media file, you can use a LEADTOOLS Multimedia .NET SDK to convert the media file into one of the supported web-formats (such as MP4 ISO or OGG), and playback the result using the HTML5 Video tag. The following code shows how you can do this in C# Server side code:

ConvertCtrl TestConvert = new ConvertCtrl(true);
TestConvert.SourceFile = @"c:\MediaFilesToFix\Input.avi";
TestConvert.TargetFormat = Leadtools.Multimedia.TargetFormatType.ISO;
TestConvert.VideoCompressors.H264.Selected = true;
TestConvert.AudioCompressors.AAC.Selected = true;
TestConvert.TargetFile = @"C:\MediaFilesToPlay\Output.mp4";
