Hi
I downloaded a video from istockphoto.com, uploaded onto my server, inserted it into my DW8 document and I can't get it to play. All I get is a small gray icon.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Bob

does your server have the quictime mime definitions defined properly?

Probably not--I managed to get the movie to play when I preview my document in the browser, but when I upload page I just get the quicktime icon. What I didn't realize iniitally and was causing me a lot of pain--was when inserting a QT movie in DW8, you must specify the movie size.

plus add 16 pixels for the controller to show up

Yup...got that and it plays! However it's not what I thought. My intention was to just have the clip on my webpage without controller, frame and have the movie continually loop. Don't know if this is possible?

Have to go up to the church for a couple hours but when I get back hopefully there will be some work around.

Cheers

Okay this worked--thank you.
