Hi

Do you have the video on your computer? What file format is it?

How did you upload this video to your account?

How did you insert the video onto your page?

Or is it you only have the code?

A few more details and we may be able to help.

Hi Lady Eye,

Yes the video is on my computer. It is in .dat format
I inserted the windows media player in the BV , linked the .dat file to it and then published it successfully.

Windows media player dosn't support .dat format.

HI
I changed he format to .mpg and uploaded it succesfully but it is still not working.

Your video is their, it's just takes a long time to kick in and i 20mb broadband.

Try this put a html box on your page and enter this.

Code:

 
<object id="MediaPlayer1" CLASSID="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701"
standby="Loading Microsoft Windows® Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" width="280" height="256">
<param name="fileName" value="Kick_Baby_2.mpg">
<param name="animationatStart" value="true">
<param name="transparentatStart" value="true">
<param name="autoStart" value="true">
<param name="showControls" value="true">
<param name="Volume" value="-450">
<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" src="Kick_Baby_2.mpg" name="MediaPlayer1" width=280 height=256 autostart=1 showcontrols=1 volume=-450>
</object>

Just change both instances indicated in red in the above code to point to your file.


If you prefer to not have the player controls showing (visible), then change these lines.

Code:

 
<param name="showControls" value="true">
showcontrols=1

to this instead.

Code:

 
<param name="showControls" value="false">
showcontrols=0

You can also change the size width="280" height="256" in both places.
