I have this problem on my website and no matter what I have not been able to get over it,
it is really getting on my nervers.
it's a problem that only exists in non IE browsers.
the frame work of my website is php and lets say here is how the player is shown with very simple syntaxes:
[HTML]<OBJECT id="VIDEO" width="'.$x.'" height="'.($y+6 0).'" CLASSID="CLSID: 6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" type="applicati on/x-oleobject">
<param name="AutoStart " value="true">
<param name="uiMode" value="full">
<param name="URL" value="'.$src.' ">
<embed type="applicati on/x-mplayer2"
src="'.$src.'"
id="Player"
name="Player"
width="'.$x.'"
height="'.($y+6 0).'"
AutoStart="true "></embed>
</OBJECT>
[/HTML]
where $x and $y are the dimentions of the video being played,
and the $src is the video file,
now the problem is....,
the video files is being streamed through a php which checks the user session being logged in or not (through cookies / sessions), something like
videofile.php?f ileid=xx
Now this works perfect in Internet Explorer, if the user is logged in , the movie starts playing,
But in non IE browser, eg FireFox, if the user is logged in and opened the file directly in the browser, everything is fine and the user is authenticated and download starts,
but if the embedded media player requests the file, it fails, it's like even though it is embedded inside FireFox, media player is still looking into sessions and cookies from Internet explorer, because the video starts playing in firefox when I also log in in Internet Explorer.
I have not been able to tell Embedded Windows Media Player in firefox to check the logged in status in firefox,
If somebody knows how I can fix this I really appreciate this, as I can't afford to not to stream my files through php and just put the direct links for the src.

Burnnnn haha.
And to the OP, don't be so pushy.
Ask the same question on a bunch of different DEV sites.
you wont get an answer immediately man.
I have a Windows Media Player embedded and it plays a video file fine. What I would like to do is show only the "Title" or other text, and not have the Windows Media Player show until the 'title' is clicked on.
Here is the HTML I am using; so what should I change? Thanks for any answer.
<table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center"> <font size="8">Red Blanchard Says Hello!
<!-- begin embedded WindowsMedia file... -->
<table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center">
<tr><td>
<OBJECT id='mediaPlayer ' width="720" height="450"

src="webhello.w mv" autostart="fals e" designtimesp='5 311' loop="false">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
</td></tr>
<!-- ...end embedded WindowsMedia file -->
I forgot to add that I would not want to use the "transparen t" option, because then you get a big blank spot until you turn on the player.
Here I am again, and this time I learned about a "redirect" link, in the form of a "WVX" file, so I made one and had it point to my embedded video, but it woudnt work, but gave me this error message:
"The playlist cannot be opened because it is stored in a shared folder on another computer.
If possible, move the playlist to the playlists folder on your computer."
Anybody got any ideas, now? Thanks for listening

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?

Hi,
I have included an embedded Real Player and an embedded Quick Time

I'm interested in searching for a method or a script to disable the

I don't want the viewers to download the video but to view it while
