HTML - Embedding A Video From Myspace With Loop & Autostart?
I'm trying to embed a video from MySpace into my blog, but I'd like to make it loop and start automatically. I tried adding loop="1" and autostart="1" as well as loop="true" and autostart="true" inside the embed tag. I even tried autoplay instead of autostart. I also tried adding &autoplay=1&loop=1 to the end of the URL inside the embed tag, which works for YouTube videos. None of these methods worked!
Does anyone know how to do this? At this point, I'm beginning to think MySpace has something that overrides any attempts to autostart or loop a video, presumably to prevent people from hiking up their view counts. Similar TutorialsHi All, I am having issues with the following code from a video file (in html). Hoping you can help, I need to make the video start automatically. This video is from Tube Chop (Tube Chop is a similar service than you tube) and you can copy and paste the code from any video and paste is onto a website as an embedded file. I am trying to get the file to start automatically as soon as any user goes to the page (as opposed to having to click on the video). I know for you tube all you have to do is add "&autostart=1 and it works fine. But I tried to put this code below and it still doesn't work. Can someone assist? FYI - Pls note that the part that reads "&start=0&end=26" below was included on purpose so the video starts at the beginning and end after 26 seconds. The website added the code. I need to keep this rule while still getting the video to autostart. Code: <p> <object width="500" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://swf.tubechop.com/tubechop.swf?vurl=SJyCGltS95k&start=0&end=26&cid=227694"></param><embed src="http://swf.tubechop.com/tubechop.swf?vurl=SJyCGltS95k&start=0&end=26&cid=227694" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="344"></embed></object></p> Thanks very much. Okay, this one is a tough one for me. On my website, Celtics Insider, where the picture of the banners are (right above the "About Us" and "Our History" sections), I want to change that image into a video. I want to have a video like ESPN, where it doesn't say "YouTube" or show any of that crap, just a little transparent "play" button (the image, not the text). I'm just wondering a few things. First off, how do I resize the video so it is 442 x 200? Also, how do I make it so the YouTube thing doesn't show up? And how do I make a little transparent play button to click on before the video starts? I want to be able to have text below as well with a link to the story, like ESPN does. If you don't know what I mean, look at ESPN: http://espn.go.com/ Hi, I'm new here. I'm also a beginner web programmer so please take it easy on me. I've taken on a job where I need to embed a video into a webpage, I think I can figure out how to do that however my employer wants this video to be slanted. I have no idea how I would slant the video using HTML/CSS/DHTML. For an example of what I am talking about please view this website: http://www.wavecam.com/ I am aware that the video on that site was embedded into Flash so I'm wondering if that is the only way to do this. Thanks in advance for any help provided. This is my first attempt at putting a .avi video on a webpage. Right now, here's my code: <embed src="name.avi"></embed> Internet Explorer will load up a video player, but then the whole page will freeze. The file's 12.9 mb and is being ran on my computer, so it shouldn't be a size issue. To run the video originally, I had to download this codec: http://www.techsmith.com/download/codecs.asp Any ideas? Does anyone know the best practice for creating/embedding a video (3gpp/3gpp2/mp4) in html? Thanks in advance, James I'm new to HTML and I'm trying to embed a video from Youtube to the page. I know that you can just copy the embed line from the youtube video site, but what I want is if I click a picture on one(left) side of the page, the video will appear on the other side(right). The page is split into two where all of the left side has a picture, and when you click it, the picture(or video) will enlarge on the right. The video itself should be embedded, not redirect me to the site. I'm using Microsoft FrontPage. Anyone know what lines or commands on the HTML page I should put to do this? Here is an example of the HTML lines that I have currently and I want to change: <tr> <td width="25%" bgcolor="#000000"><a href="http://www.youtu be.com/watch?v=Wri" target="main"><img border="2" src="03_small.jpg" alt="03.jpg (2891 bytes)" width="50" height="37"></a></td> <td width="25%" bgcolor="#000000"><a href="http://www.youtu be.com/watch?v=C" target="main"><img border="2" src="02_small.jpg" alt="02.jpg (3219 bytes)" width="50" height="37"></a></td> <td width="25%" bgcolor="#000000"><a href="http://www.youtu be.com/watch?v=6b" target="main"><img border="2" src="01_small.jpg" alt="01.jpg (2236 bytes)" width="50" height="37"></a></td> <td width="25%" bgcolor="#000000"> </td> </tr> I'm having trouble with embedding multiple videos to the same player. I'm not using asx files, but rather wmv to make a selection-list. I found a site that solved my due problem and the thing works. however!! The URL in the code refers to youtube videos, and that's great and all, but I needed 'em to link to my own media files. so I changed the URL's to those on my server, and here's the problem: when doing it offline with the files on my harddrive I can add as many files I want to without it complaining, but the second it goes online or I link to wmv files on the internet it can't seem to get a connection. It only works if I have but a single <div> entry typed. As soon as I add more the thing bugs. I even tried changing "application/x-shockwave-flash" to "application/x-mplayer2" Please!! Any solution to this?? What am I doing wrong?? Example with ref's to youtube-videos, below. <div id='videoPlayback' style='width: 435px; height:350px; background-color: #800000;'></div> <div id='selectDemo2' style='display: none'> <object width="320" height="285"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/c6SHsF1n9Qw"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/c6SHsF1n9Qw&autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="320" height="285" autostart=0 showstatusbar=1> </embed> </object> </div> <div id='selectDemo2' style='display: none'> <object width="320" height="285"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-is63goeBgc"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-is63goeBgc&autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="320" height="285" autostart=0 showstatusbar=1> </embed> </object> </div> <A HREF="#" onclick='return playVideo("selectDemo1","videoPlayback")'>RvD2: Ryan vs. Dorkman 2</A> <BR> <A HREF="#" onclick='return playVideo("selectDemo2","videoPlayback")'>Beatboxing Flute <q>Peter and the Wolf</q></A <BR> <script type="text/javascript">function playVideo(sourceId, targetId) { if (typeof(sourceId)=='string') {sourceId=document.getElementById(sourceId);} if (typeof(targetId)=='string') {targetId=document.getElementById(targetId);} targetId.innerHTML=sourceId.innerHTML; return false;}</script> Hi guys, I am trying to embed a .mov video that is hosted on my amazon s3 account to a website.

Thanks i have posted previously about issues im having but still no hope. basically, i have some youtube videos embedded in my site.. in firefox the videos load fine, but in i.e it just shows the red x as if there is an image missing. any uideas please anyone? i have tried on my desktop and laptop with same results. please help... the video section is: http://www.bmwgallery.co.uk/bmw-car-videos.html I'm not sure where the best place to post this question is, so I thought I'd start here and see what I get. I want to set up a video player like it is on this site: http://blueroomnyc.com/work/Q3hLj98J...story-refresh/ There are 3 links to different videos on the page, but they all open in the same place when activated. How is this accomplished? Is it javascript? I'd like to be able to do the same thing with an audio plugin as well. Thanks. I tried to embed a wmv video in my web page, using this code: <HEAD><meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no"> <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="false"> </HEAD> <BODY bgcolor="#000000"> <p align="center"> <img border="0" dynsrc="baby_girl.wmv" start="fileopen"></p> </BODY></HTML> I uploaded the wmv into a folder called just_like_daddy on my website called www.lovetoamuse.com On a blog I placed this link to the page: www.lovetoamuse.com/just_like_daddy To complicate matters, the video shows up on my computer, but when I try to see to it from the blog on another computer, it doesn't work. What code can I use to ensure it works everywhere, using the url www.lovetomuse.com/just_like_daddy Thanks I need to create an HTML page for mobile devices that displays videos. Ideally, it needs to work with older phone browsers too, so I was hoping someone could help me with the following questions: 1. What doctype should I use (XHTML Basic 1.1?)? 2. What's the best way to embed the video in the HTML? 3. If the video can't be embedded, is it good practice to (also?) provide a link so the user can download the video to show in a separate video player application? 4. What video media type(s) are best supported in mobile devices? NB - I will be using Java to create the HTML, so if there's a need to get any request headers, etc. then I could do that in order to provide the best output according to the device. Thanks in advance, James Hello, I've embedded a quicktime video on to my page using the following code: Code: <object width="223" height="148" classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" type="video/quicktime" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"> <param name="src" value="http://www.lucidusconsulting.com/Videos/masterchef_trim" /> <param name="autoStart" value="false" /> <param name="autoPlay" value="false" /> <param name="controller" value="true" /> <param name="loop" value="false" /> <embed width="223" height="148" scale="tofit" type="video/quicktime" src="http://www.lucidusconsulting.com/Videos/masterchef_trim" controller="true" autoplay="true" loop="false"></embed></object> The video shows and plays correctly, however - the AutoStart Flase value appears be be being ignored - and the video begins playing as soon as the page loads. Can anyone suggest why this may be? Many thanks in advance. An html noob would like some help. I am making a html page to autorun from a CD-ROM. I would like the browser window on the users computer to open to a fixed size. I tried the following html inserted into the body of my code. Code: onload="self.resizeTo(795,470)"> This works well in Internet Explorer but when I try it with Firefox 3.0.1 the script seems to make the toolbars and scrollbars be included in the size. That is, the interior of IE window displays the content at the right size (795 x 470) with no space between the content and the scroll bars etc., but the whole of the firefox browser program (toolbars, scrollbars etc shrink to 795 x 470). This makes it necessary to scroll the content in Firefox. I would like to only use html for the solution as I am trying to keep the CD-ROM requirements to run to a minimum. Also if there was someway to make the scroll bars and toolbars disappear from the browsers this would improve the professional look. I am sure there is an easy answer, but I can't find it. Thanks for any help. Hey all, Is it possible to shut down video screen automatically after displaying the video? I mean, after video is over, is it possible to hide the video screen?
