I wanted to show an MPEG-4 video file on a web page. I'm talking about
a real iso-compliant file (with the .mp4 extension.)
I've been searching on how to use mime-types but it turns out that you
need to place a realvideo or quicktime file that links to the mpeg-4
file. But that's not what I want.
MPEG-4 is supposed to be the standard format for video on internet
(and also for other kinds of multimedia). So I want my MPEG-4 file
showing up just like a jpeg image. The visitors of the page need to
have the choice to install whatever plug-in they want, on any
platform. Most of them already do: quicktime, realone, 3ivx, mplayer
and vlc all have browser plug-ins.
Does anybody know if there is or will ever be mime-type or something
that should be used as the default way of embedding an MPEG-4 file in
html? 3 9167

Not as of yet. As you have found, to display in a browser you need to wrap
the file in a container such as QuickTime.
There is lots of information available here http://www.m4if.org/ and here http://developer.apple.com/documenta...New/index.html

Hello Java people,
Been awhile since I've used Java, and when I did, it was pretty much XML

There are solutions for this, but they all seem to involve using a

Looking to find info/ libs on creating (small) video files.
Basically what I'm looking for is a tutorial for constructing a short
video... (nothing nasty: output from a transmission line simulation).
I've been searching for a while now, and all I get is info for creation
inside someone else's app. Rather useless for me.
The sim needs to be web accessible. So I was thinking mpeg, quicktime,
wmv, avi, etc.
