[raciviusdawn]

Can you take a look at this page and tell me what their aren't any play,rewind, fast forward options???

I inserted the movie into the page through Dreamweaver and there aren't any options to play,rewind etc...also, the thing just automatically plays...is there a way through Dreamweaver to make it so it doesn't automatically play?

1. The reason you are not seeing the controller is because you cropped the video file. Quicktime files sometimes does not display the controller for cropped videos.

Your video is 410 x 320 and you are only displaying 393 x 274.

2. You can set the controller settings in the embed tag.

CONTROLLER=true/false
LOOP=true/false
AUTOPLAY=true/false

You can add this so it will not autoplay and still show the controller as long as you resize you embedded file.

CONTROLLER=true LOOP=false AUTOPLAY=false

i did what the links said and i tried to play the movie in Dreamweaver but it said it couldn't find the plug ins in my Configuration/plugin folder or in the plugins for the browsers i have

@image, so i simply change my parameters by doing an Insert > Media > Plugin (instead of ActiveX like the links above suggest) and it worked fine just changing the parameters...

BUT i'd like to know what went wrong when i tried doing it how the link above suggested.
