Can’t figure out why video is not playing

flashflvvideo

I used the longtail flv player setup wizard to embed a video on a web page. It worked on the wizard but not after I copied and pasted into my page. Does anyone see anything obvious? The thumbnail for the screenshot works and is in the same location as the flv file.

???????

I'm fairly confident it's throwing a wobbly at the fact that you're including the flv file as:

so.addVariable('file','http://www.thurstonchamber.com/WorkForAll/ICANCap.flv');

Try just reducing it to:

 so.addVariable('file', 'ICANCap.flv');

and seeing if that work.

SWFObject Examples

The example given above is what you need for the bare bones use of SWFObject, but what if you want to use some of the other parameters the Flash plug-in has to offer? SWFObject makes it very easy to add any extra parameter you may need. The examples below are a number of different methods you may wish to use to embed your Flash content.

A simple example adding a few extra parameters

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100%", "7", "#336699");
so.addParam("quality", "low");
so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
so.addParam("salign", "t");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
<div id="flashcontent"><!--put a place holder image in here.--></div>
