Is the url to the file correct? It doesn't work even when I want to access it with the browser.

Try this code, it works!

<object id="MediaPlayer1" classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" type="application/x-oleobject" width="320" height="265">
<
param name="fileName" value="http://www.sonymusic.com/artists/Crossfade/video/Crossfade_ColdVidFull_300.asx" />
<
param name="autoStart" value="1" />
<
param name="showControls" value="true" />
<
param name="Volume" value="-300" />
<
embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" src="http://www.sonymusic.com/artists/Crossfade/video/Crossfade_ColdVidFull_300.asx" name="MediaPlayer1" width="320" height="265" autostart="1" showcontrols="1" volume="-300">

These are the two lines where you have to paste the url to the video (marked in red):

<object id="MediaPlayer1" classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" type="application/x-oleobject" width="320" height="265">
<
param name="fileName" value="[color=FF0000]http://www.sonymusic.com/artists/Crossfade/video/Crossfade_ColdVidFull_300.asx[/color]" />
<
param name="autoStart" value="1" />
<
param name="showControls" value="true" />
<
param name="Volume" value="-300" />
<
embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" src="[color=FF0000]http://www.sonymusic.com/artists/Crossfade/video/Crossfade_ColdVidFull_300.asx[/color]" name="MediaPlayer1" width="320" height="265" autostart="1" showcontrols="1" volume="-300">

ok thanks. i got it to work.

now... how can i keep this playing on every page without starting over? right now it only plays on the home page. i know i can add a custom block on every page but then it will start over every time they change pages.

last question... how can i play videos hosted on my server. they are mpg's.

I fear it is impossible.

You just need the url to these videos to be in player code. So it is irrelevant on which server they lie.

Perhaps you want to try debaser (in module repository / multimedia) for displaying multimedia?

I fear this is not true, francis

I guess it must be doable with iframes (with no refresh).
