Everytime I ask somebody how to embed a Windows Media Player into my website, they give me the same code and tell me to change the Param and Value. I don't get what these are! So if you could please help me by giving me a code and telling me what to change in it. Also if you could help me specify what File Names, etc. to put where I would really, really, appreciate it.

Thank You for Your Help!

The reason is because every time you ask the question the same answer still applies.

Why didn't you ask them?

Anywho, the parameters that you need to change are the file and the size.

Code:

<object id="MediaPlayer1" width=180 height=200 

   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" align="middle"> 

    <param name="FileName" value="CHANGEME"> 

    <param name="ShowStatusBar" value="True"> 

    <param name="DefaultFrame" value="mainFrame"> 

    <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" 

   pluginspage = "http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" 

   src="Server/File" align="middle" 

   width=176 

   height=144 

   defaultframe="rightFrame" 

   showstatusbar=true> 

    </embed> 

  </object>

If you are ok with the size, just change the " CHANGEME" to point to the media file you want to play.

The file name depends on what YOU want the player to play, as such we can't tell you what (unless you don't mind us picking what is played on your page).

Thanxs for the tip, it really helps alot, but when i type in the file name. The players says 'Opening' for about a second then stops. Im not sure if i should put in a different file or try a different file type. Right now I am using AVI files.
