How to embed (add) a video to your webpage.

(Thanks to 'tbird' for letting me use his video for these examples)

You need to have your video file hosted on a server. Either here at GotStang? (must be less than 1MB to be hosted on GS) or somewhere else. Once you have the file hosted somewhere continue with the information below:

NOTE!!! The Example URL that is used in the follwing codes must be replaced with the URL for YOUR video. The example URL is:

http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.*

* = .mov or .wmv or .rm

Ensure!!! that you replace all instances of the Example URL with YOUR URL. If you want it to work right :-p

NOTE 2!!! I know my real media file doesn't work. It's a problem with my converter. It won't convert Real Media right for some reason and I wanted to get this up as quick as possible. The code will work though, just place the URL to your video in place of my example URL.

Embeding a QuickTime (*.MOV) file/video, use this code, replacing the URL included, with the one you have for your video.

<?> Copy & paste the following...

      <!-- begin embedded QuickTime file... -->
      <table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center">
        <!-- begin video window... -->
        <tr><td>
        <OBJECT classid='clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B' width="640"
        height="495" codebase='http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab'>
        <param name='src' value="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.mov">
        <param name='autoplay' value="true">
        <param name='controller' value="true">
        <param name='loop' value="false">
        <EMBED src="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.mov" width="640" height="495" autoplay="true" 
        controller="true" loop="false" pluginspage='http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/'>
        </EMBED>
        </OBJECT>
        </td></tr>
        <!-- ...end embedded QuickTime file -->
        </table>

Embeding a Windows Media Files (*.WMV or *.WMA or *.ASX or *.ASF):

<?> Copy & paste the following... <!-- begin embedded WindowsMedia file... --> <table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center"> <tr><td> <OBJECT id='mediaPlayer' width="640" height="525" 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'> <param name='fileName' value="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.wmv"> <param name='animationatStart' value='true'> <param name='transparentatStart' value='true'> <param name='autoStart' value="false"> <param name='showControls' value="true"> <param name='loop' value="false"> <EMBED type='application/x-mplayer2' pluginspage='http://microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/en/download/' id='mediaPlayer' name='mediaPlayer' displaysize='4' autosize='-1' bgcolor='darkblue' showcontrols="true" showtracker='-1' showdisplay='0' showstatusbar='-1' videoborder3d='-1' width="640" height="525" src="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.wmv" autostart="false" designtimesp='5311' loop="false"> </EMBED> </OBJECT> </td></tr> <!-- ...end embedded WindowsMedia file --> <!-- begin link to launch external media player... --> <tr><td align='center'> <a href="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.wmv" style='font-size: 85%;' target='_blank'>Launch in external player</a> <!-- ...end link to launch external media player... --> </td></tr> </table> This should leave you with something like: Launch in external player

Embeding a Real Media (*.RM) File/Video:

<?> Copy & paste the following... <!-- begin embedded RealMedia file... --> <table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center"> <!-- begin video window... --> <tr><td> <OBJECT id='rvocx' classid='clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA' width="640" height="480"> <param name='src' value="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.rm"> <param name='autostart' value="false"> <param name='controls' value='imagewindow'> <param name='console' value='video'> <param name='loop' value="false"> <EMBED src="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.rm" width="640" height="480" loop="false" type='audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin' controls='imagewindow' console='video' autostart="false"> </EMBED> </OBJECT> </td></tr> <!-- ...end video window --> <!-- begin control panel... --> <tr><td> <OBJECT id='rvocx' classid='clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA' width="640" height='30'> <param name='src' value="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.rm"> <param name='autostart' value="false"> <param name='controls' value='ControlPanel'> <param name='console' value='video'> <EMBED src="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.rm" width="640" height='30' controls='ControlPanel' type='audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin' console='video' autostart="false"> </EMBED> </OBJECT> </td></tr> <!-- ...end control panel --> <!-- ...end embedded RealMedia file --> <!-- begin link to launch external media player... --> <tr><td align='center'> <a href="http://www.w3bma5t3r.com/gotstang_hosted/tbird/trying_to_burnout.rm" style='font-size: 85%;' target='_blank'>Launch in external player</a> <!-- ...end link to launch external media player... --> </td></tr> </table> This should leave you with something like: Launch in external player
