| | VISTA won't play embedded windows movie I have a site that embeds a windows media player. It plays just fine on XP & MAC using safari, ie 6 or 7, and firefox. But VISTA won't play it. It makes the video look like it is on qualudes or something. It says it is downloading and then gets all funky. Take a look: http://ludwig.squarespace.com/conlaw...udicial-review Any ideas why the video won't play on my VISTA machine? Thanks for all of your help and happy holidays. Here is a copy of the code if you need it: <!-- BEGIN HTML FOR WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER --> <object id="MediaPlayer" width=610 height=500 classid="clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6." codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=6,4,7,1112" standby="Loading Windows Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject"> <param name="FileName" value="http://seanwilson.org/lectures/conlaw1/10/h.wmv"> <param name="ShowControls" value="True"> <param name="AutoStart" value="True"> <param name="ShowStatusBar" value="True"> <param name="EnablePositionControls" value="True"> <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="http://seanwilson.org/lectures/conlaw1/10/h.wmv" name="MediaPlayer" width=610 height=500 showstatusbar=1 enablepositioncontrols=1> </embed> </object> |

| | Re: VISTA won't play embedded windows movie This worked fine for me on Vista/IE7. It's a 2mbps file, though, so it's not going to play well for average users not on broadband. -- Speaking for myself only. See http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html for some helpful WMP info.
