.AVI

If im wanting to put a .avi onto a website what codes would i need?
Ross

You'd need to find the embed script for windows media player? Similar to that of which you use to play radio streams.

Just a thought though... From what I remember from dealing with .avi videos they are extremely big files because they are a series of hundreds and thousands of still images... therefore maybe a bit impractical for streaming on the web due to massive download/upload times and a lot of bandwidth usage? Just a thought, maybe remembering incorrectly but would be best to convert to a smaller video file.

Correct. You'd be better off converting it.

Upload it to YouTube and use the YouTube embed code?

This is the code:

Code:

<object id="MediaPlayer1" 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" width="280" height="256">
<param name="fileName" value="http://thelastlaughfl.com/JMFINAL.wmv">
<param name="animationatStart" value="true">
<param name="transparentatStart" value="true">
<param name="autoStart" value="true">

</object>

where the red bit is, change it to the source.. Sometimes you need to mess around with something like this:

HTML Code:

---

<a href="linkage" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out');" onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','Jackpoppic_r2_c2','Jackpoppic_r2_c2_f2.jpg','Jackpoppic_r2_c2_f4.jpg',1);" onClick="window.open(this.href,'JMFINAL','top=50,left=50,width=280,height=257,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no, scrollbars=no,resizable=no');return false;">
