Embed Code not working in internet explorer
Jan. 19, 2009Chris P
I would really like some help with this. The following code is to produce a player that plays two movies. This works in Firefox but only plays one movie in IE or Safari.
<!-- START: FILMTRAILER.COM FLASH PLAYER version 3.3 -->
<object width="400" height="225">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.player.filmtrailer.com/v3.3/player.swf?file=http://uk.player-feed.filmtrailer.com/v2.0/cinema/1511|1508/?channel_user_id=441100227-1"></param>
<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.player.filmtrailer.com/v3.3/player.swf?file=http://uk.player-feed.filmtrailer.com/v2.0/cinema/1511|1508/?channel_user_id=441100227-1&default_quality=xlarge&display_title=none&volume=35" allowFullScreen="true" width="400" height="225"></embed>
</object><br/> <a style="font-family: verdana; color:cccccc; font-size:
8pt; text-decoration:none" alt="filmtrailer.com" target="_blank" href="http://uk.filmtrailer.com/">Film Trailers by Filmtrailer.com</a>
<!-- END: Provided by filmtrailer.com -->
I would really appreciate some help.
Thanks

This is explorer 7 & 8. Any help out there?

The problem is to do with the vertical bar as a separator.
One film works fine, but when I try to add another film using the vertical bar | as a separator it onlys plays one.
But it will play both in Firefox.

We have fixed this now. encoding our source according to UTF-8. I.e.
<!-- START: FILMTRAILER.COM FLASH PLAYER version 3.3 -->
<object width="400" height="225">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.player.filmtrailer.com/v3.3/player.swf?file=http://uk.player-feed.filmtrailer.com/v2.0/cinema%2F1508%7C1513%7C1524%7C1418%2F%3Fchannel_user_id%3D441100227-1" />

@my site (www.dieperbeeld.nl) single films don't work in IE either.
This is the code:
<div id="player1" style="text-align:left"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</div>
<p> <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script><br />
<script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("player.swf","ply","360","288","9");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always");
s1.addParam("flashvars","file=/wp-content/filmMarco.flv&fullscreen=true");
s1.write("player1");
</script></p>
and this is the code as I fixed it in Wordpress:
<div id="player1" style="text-align:left"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("player.swf","ply","360","288","9");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always");
s1.addParam("flashvars","file=/wp-content/filmMarco.flv&fullscreen=true");
s1.write("player1");
</script>
The players work fine in Firefox
Any suggestions?
thanks in advance,
Jef

@Jef,
You don't wrap the JavaScript code for the player in a paragraph element.
<div id="player1" style="text-align:left">
<a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("player.swf", "ply", "360", "288", "9");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen", "true");
s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess", "always");
s1.addParam("flashvars", "file=/wp-content/filmMarco.flv");
s1.write("player1");
</script>
The flashvar fullscreen is read-only, so I removed it from your code.
Please review the v4.x player supported flashvars here:

Your problem with Internet Explorer is probably related to the Adobe Flash Player. Go to Adobe's site and get the uninstaller. Uninstall, reboot, reinstall the Adobe Flash Player.

@ LefTy,
Thanks for your quick response.
A frind of mine just fixed it. Like this:
<!--start_raw-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.registerObject("player4", "9.0.0");
</script>
<div>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="365" height="312" id="player4">
<param name="movie" value="player.swf">
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true">
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
<param name="flashvars" value="file=/wp-content/filmMarco.flv">
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="player.swf" width="365" height="312">
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true">
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
<param name="flashvars" value="file=/wp-content/filmMarco.flv">
<!--<![endif]-->
<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">
<img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player">
</a>
<!--[if !IE]>-->
</object>
<!--<![endif]-->
</object>
</div>
<!--end_raw-->
This way the IE gets a different treatment.
Regards,
Jef

The conditional code is not necessary, but if it works, good luck!

doesn't this work without javascript so it works on myspace too?

You need a second object element for Internet Explorer.

Currently using JW player as a solution to implement streaming video from a third party. Works great except that the embed code generated after the video does not work.
<embed src='http://devlogos.com/sites/default/files/player-licensed-viral.swf' height='267' width='400' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' flashvars='file=http%3A%2F%2Fdevlogos.com%2Flogosministries%2Fvideos%2Foldtestament%2Fbible_blasts_001a.flv&image=http%3A%2F%2Fsalemnet.vo.llnwd.net%2Fo29%2Flogosministries%2FBible%20Blasts%20Pictures%2FOne%20Stone.jpg&streamer=rtmp%3A%2F%2Fsalemnet.fcod.llnwd.net%2Fa3186%2Fo29%2F&plugins=viral-1d'/>
When I remove the escaped characters manually the embed code works -
<embed src='http://www.devlogos.com/sites/default/files/player-licensed-viral.swf' height='267' width='400' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' flashvars='image=http://salemnet.vo.llnwd.net/o29/logosministries/Bible Blasts Pictures/Naked People.jpg&streamer=rtmp://salemnet.fcod.llnwd.net/a3186/o29/&file=logosministries/videos/specialtopics/bible_blasts_015.flv&volume=100&plugins=viral-1d'/></embed>
Any suggestions on getting JW player to generate the correct code automatically would be very appreciated.

These two embed codes aren't remotely the same - they don't reference the same file, and the second has a streamer, while the first doesn't.
How are you generating the first embed code from the second?
