The movies do not run on a MAC

I have built my site all works very well on both window machines and MAC
Except for the movies.

The movies are wmv’s.
These do not run on a MAC.
Do I need to make a separate QT version of the movies?
And would that mean I would have to have a script that would recognize what (OS, machine, browser) the user is using and then run a QT for the MAC and wmv for the windows machine.
If this is the case is there a script that dose that?

Or am I just way off base here….
Thanks in advance
 
Like Dan suggests, use a friendlier format. Most WMVs will work on Mac if Windows Media Player is installed, but you are most assured of crossplatform compatibility if you use QT, or consider using a plugin-unspecific format like .MPG.
