insert flv or wmv file - 11/28/2006 18:32:48   
Where can I find instructions on inserting an flv file into a web page? I need to add it as a play on click behavior. I will have the file in both flv and wmv format. THe wmv is much larger; what are the pros and cons of either format? I couldn't open the flv file without downloading an flv player (I already have flash players, but nothing would open it). When I got it open with the flv player, the resolution was terrible.

Thanks for your help. Linda

http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/m-347838/tm.htm has a useful link to help you put video on the page.

wmv only works in media player, anyone on a mac won't have it, nor will anyone using Unix/Linux. It's large and takes longer to load.

FLV is flash player format. Sounds like you may have encoding problems. Try and get hold of the original and re-encode it (see below)

IMO the best format is swf as it plays in the standard flash plugin available on most machines. Small file size. Not easy to steal.

Go check out Swish Video which converts stuff to swf files
