How do you play a video file in the Browser Object

I can call a web site page eg. Utube and the file plays within the player on the page.

How do can I create the "player" in the browser?

I cannot use the Player object in the software directly, because it relies on QuickTime being installed on a users computer. The user will not want to download quick time.

By the way, the player object fails to work on my Vista PC, even with QT installed, I just get the frame and a black band at the bottom where the controls should be so cannot make the file play. Everything is fine with the MAC, but isnt it always!

Hi user#606,

well, this is pure HTML that you will have to create and "provide" to the browser object!

Check the source of some webpages that do have a "player" in them on how to "embed"
a Quicktime player or FLASH/YouTube video object.

This is definitively not a Rev problem ;-)


Best
