I can’t host with YouTube because some of the videos I’ve made have songs in them that have copyrights from SONY, so I’ve been using the following code to embed in some of my wordpress pages:
<object id="MediaPlayer" width=650 height=366 classid="CLSID:22D6f312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" standby="Loading Windows Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=6,4,7,1112"> <param name="filename" value="file.wmv"> <param name="Showcontrols" value="true"> <param name="autoStart" value="true"> <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="file.wmv" name="MediaPlayer" width=650 height=366></embed> </object>
Here’s the page it’s on:
Thing is, I’m calling for the controls to be displayed, and there’s a pit of a black bar at the top which looks about the right size, but I’m sure I’m screwing things up somehow.
Can anyone shed any light for me?
Oh, and I know the site is ugly, I’m still changing a lot of the colors and div backgrounds in the code right now. Work in progress.
Also, yes - It’s a World of Warcraft video. Yes, I am a geek.
Don’t embed a wmv, man.
Use a free .flv player, like JW PLayer or Flow Player.

I don’ really have any experience with them.
Can you shoot me a link or a tutorial to more info?
