I have been trying to embed a quicktime .mov file.
I can see the video when I look at the page online, but friends who have tried mostly meet with failure. In one case the problem seemed to be that they didn't have the correct "association" to .mov files. After correcting this they could see the movie.
I also tried putting the video in a Flash movie but the quality dropped too much. Maybe I can adjust the quality in the Flash movie??
The address to the page where you can try to see the Video is

The code I used on this page is:
Code:
<link href=&quot;../gaijineyes.css&quot; rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot;>  <div align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;body&quot;>If it works you will see a time-lapse video I made a few 
  days ago. </div>
<div align=&quot;center&quot;><br>
</div>
<center><EMBED SRC=&quot;cherry1.mov&quot; WIDTH=320 HEIGHT=256 AUTOPLAY=true CONTROLLER=false LOOP=true></EMBED></center>
<div align=&quot;center&quot;><br>

    <param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;backtomain.swf&quot;>

    <param name=&quot;base&quot; value=&quot;.&quot;>

  </object>
</div>
Any advice or references to other threads will be welcomed.
 
I couldnt get the movie displayed too because i don't have the plugin. I suggest u can put up a link to download Quicktime plugin for visitors.
Try to use flash or windows media file since it's more common..
