Using the EMBED tag in Netscape Communicator 4.08 and IE5, the browser wants to cache the video file first (takes forever when playing a 350mb video off CD!). <br>
<br>
Does anyone know any additional parameters to include in the EMBED tag to disable caching and play directly off CD??<br>
<br>

 
Hmmm....in Netscape, go into your options and look for you caching setting....if you look through your options hard enough (might check your QuickTime options too) you'll <i>most likely</i> find a setting that sets how many seconds are cached before it will start playing. <p>-Robherc<br><a href=mailto:robherc@netzero.net>robherc@netzero.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>*nix installation & program collector/reseller. Contact me if you think you've got one that I don't :)
