Embedded Media Player

codepuller

I have a embedded media player into an ASP.NET web page and it all works
except for the first time the page loads, when the user clicks on the play
button, the player acts like it is going to play and then it stops. When I
refresh the page, it works fine. Not sure what to think here about this. Any
ideas?

I don't have an answer but i'm interested in how you embedded the player. Can
I steal your code?

Thanks,
Sarah

Sure, it is just an object tag in your HTML.

<OBJECT ID="MediaPlayer " WIDTH="220" HEIGHT="220"
CLASSID="CLSID: 22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" STANDBY="Loadin g Windows
Media Player components..." TYPE="applicati on/x-oleobject" VIEWASTEXT>
<PARAM NAME="FileName" VALUE="mms://url to your file">
<PARAM name="autostart " VALUE="false">
<PARAM name="ShowContr ols" VALUE="true">
<param name="ShowStatu sBar" value="true">
<PARAM name="ShowDispl ay" VALUE="false">
<EMBED TYPE="applicati on/x-mplayer2" SRC="mms://url to your file"
NAME="MediaPlay er" WIDTH="220" HEIGHT="220"> </EMBED>
</OBJECT>

There are quite a few more parameters that can be used to set the behavior
of the object. You can do a search on embedding windows media player in an
ASP.NET page and you can get lots of references.

If your interested, I solved my problem by setting up windows media services
on my web server. My solution was to use streaming video, instead of just
having it download to the local browser. It was fairly easy to set up. Here
is the URL to the page I used to set up the streaming.

Good Luck!

I have an APP that reads from a file on disk and decrypts the raw data into the memory stream that then gets passed to the client.

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
