Embed .WMV Video w/o Controls

[mark4man]

OK...

I want to embed a 320 X 240 .wmv movie in my band's myspace music page Bio. I used a code entry I found in a tutorial at myspace, which went to the tune of:

<embed name="RAOCXplayer" src="URL Goes Here" type="application/x-mplayer2" width="320" height="302"
ShowStatusBar="1" AutoSize="true" DisplaySize="0"
pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/Downloads/Contents/
Products/MediaPlayer/"></embed>

But the play controls display at the bottom of the Windows Media Player, which flattens the height of the aspect ratio. I removed the height & width attributes from the code (also as suggested)...but that expands the movie to a larger size than 320 X 240; & the height is still a bit flat.

All I want to do is loop my .wmv movie on the page, w/o the stupid controls on the movie player; & have it display at the size I created it at (320 X 240)...much in the same way as a flash movie displays.

Can this be accomplished?

Thanks,

Check out this site, http://cit.ucsf.edu/embedmedia/step2.php?mediatype=WindowsMedia

That may remove the controls.
It seems to put more code into the embed code too, so that might make what you want.

Hitch...

Thanks...but that code doesn't work for beans (probably because the the Bio section @ myspace is already in a table...but I'm not sure.)

Anyway, I managed to place the code & the player loads & the movie works & all is well...except for two things.

1) Is there a way to center the player in the table (side to side)? Right now, it's justified full left.

2) I noticed that when the page is scrolled, the player/movie is unstable...bouncing up & down eradically. Is there any way to smooth that out?

ShowStatusBar="1" AutoSize="true" DisplaySize="0"

That will remove the controls.



You could try putting <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> around the embed code to center it.

I don't think you can fix the jumping. :td:
