Hi,

I am trying to embed an rv file created with realproducer basic in a web page. I am using the following code:

Code:
<object classid="clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11CF-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA" type="application/vnd.rn-realplayer-javascript" >
         <param name="src" value="mymovie.rv">
         <param name="autostart" value="true">
         <param name="controls" value="imagewindow">
         <param name="console" value="video">
         <param name="maintainaspect" value="true">
         <embed src="movies\chrishaslam.rv" type="application/vnd.rn-realplayer-javascript" autoplay="true" width="320" height="240">
         </embed>
      </object>

It works fine in IE7 but nothing displays at all in FireFox 2. Any suggestions?
 
I'm not sure if this will fix the issue, but we had a problem with thr flash player not doing things in firefox when the object tag didn;t have an id tag.

try adding one to that and see what happens

Hope this helps!

thanks for the tip but it didn't help....
 
thanks monksnake, the links in the page you linked to weren't great but made me laugh, the link to the solution to the firefox problem just says that firefox insn't actually supported! But thankfully I got it working, I was using the wrong damn type attribute. Strangely enough, to make video play, I had to specify the audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin type!

cheers anyway
