Hi, Have got a quicktime .mov file. I want to stream it live on my website. I am using windows media player on my webpage. Whats the best option....convert it to a .asx file......if so how can I do this?????? Or is there another option that will allow me to play quicktime movies on my webpages. Am developing webpages using a Windows Operating system and not a MAC. Any ideas guys?????? Cheers

Cheers for that vragabond. So all i have to do now is convert my quictime video to wmv file??? Is that correct?? If so do you know anywhere I can do this??

Not correct. I would suggest you read the part of the article titled 'Embedding QuickTime movies without embed'. And then use the method describe to put your QuickTime movie on the page.

Hi, Vragabond. Have changed my file to a wmv. file. Think it will appear to a much wider audience than .mov files, bu thanks for the tip......its looking good mate
