I have no idea what is causing this.

http://www.caniamedia.com/media1.html <-- works in Firefox but not ie 6, 7
http://www.caniamedia.com/media2.html <-- works in both Firefox and ie 6, 7
http://www.caniamedia.com/media3.html <-- works in Firefox but not ie 6, 7

The system is windows xp with the latest flash plugin. When I press play, the player flashes and nothing happened.

Since the third file plays OK from my server, I'm guessing that either the presence of the extra "flv" in the URI, the very long URI, or something about the server's headers is hanging IE.

Feb. 15, 2008Tony

For the first one it works in Firefox so that is weird.
As for the third one, it plays fine on the video stream website (ie/firefox) and firefox but not okay when in flvplayer ie.

Feb. 15, 2008Dave

You need to put the reference to the player files before the end header flag.

Place these two before </ head> on your pages:
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="flvController.js"></script>

Make sure you have the two files mentioned within the folder the page is in.
Cheers

Feb. 15, 2008Tony

Where can I get the flvController.js?

Feb. 15, 2008Dave

I have just tried a page refering to your video file.
I would believe the file is not where the url says t is, but take the following and put it on a page - then adjust the url to the video file.
Collect it all, place it in a text editor first then re-copy it and add it to your html page.
<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

I got the controller from the download pack when I unzipped it I believe.

Feb. 15, 2008Tony

http://125.76.254.15/0100643AA24625B54BB5B9000764D7427D19E0-9BC7-905A-4C86-CDF983263065.flv
I can download that file when going to that url so the file exist.

I put up the code here http://www.caniamedia.com/media4.html, but I don't have the flvController.js and I can't find it in the mediaplayer-3-14.zip package. Still does not work in ie.

Feb. 15, 2008Robert

i have worked on mine for weeks....can you help me? i am listed in the forum under setup problems...

http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?thread=8917#msg52489

i thought it was finally fixed today as it worked for along time...but then still stops on and off....

Feb. 17, 2008Tony

Could this be possibly having something to do with the server hosting the videos itself?

Feb. 22, 2008Ominus

I've the same problem the file is on another server.
If I try to wiev with Firefox there are no problem With IE the file doesn't load

I've tried to
add
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
and I've upload the swfobject.js but still doen't work.

With file on the server there are no problem both the browser.

I've even observed that it thepends from the server. For several server it does load for both browser.
Any tips?

Feb. 22, 2008AJAX

@Ominus,

Please post your player code, or better yet, a link to your test page so someone can help you.

Feb. 23, 2008Skulquake

ok I'm having the exact same problem with the player not loading in IE. but just fine in Firefox and Flock

Now I went to a couple of forums to post my problem and see if it was just my IE browser, these are the responses I've gotten so far.

#1. "IE7. It played with a black screen with white letters and much too loud.
Wasn't full screen and I am too lazy to fire up FF and look at it."

#2. "Ok when I clicked the link I got a black background and an partial embedded video that only showed like 10 percent of the video screen with the play button in the middle. I clicked the play button and heard the audio and saw the words. So you need to fix the embedded code. Possibly fitting it to a small size than full screen. That might be the issue. Maybe."

#3. "Yeah it shows up"

ok now why would I have different responses it works for 2 of the users but #2 had some trouble. if it works in 2 of the situations shouldn't it work in all cases?

When I view the page I get nothing but the black background in my IE7

here's the page with the player:

http://facebookrevealed.com/demo/fix/index.html

and heres the code I'm using:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Any help would be appreciated I've been racking my brain over this for the past week.

Thanx

@Skulquake - works fine in my IE7 flash9.0115 - so theres a good chance you just need to uninstall/reinstall the flash plugin
adobe flash versiontest: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_15507
adobe flash uninstall: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
adobe flash install: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

im using allvideo player and have same isue it play fine on firefox but not on internet explore. i have nothing but a white spot where the player goes. Im using joomla 1.0.13 with mediamogul template

Feb. 25, 2008Danh

I've been having this problem with my website too, can anyone help me please?

I tried following the instructions on http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/articles/devletter.html, the first one since i've only got a flash banner that i need to get working.

I created the "foo" javascript file and it looks like:

function RunFoo()
{
document.write('<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"
id="Sponsors"
width="900" height="100">\n');
document.write('<param name="movie" value="Sponsors.swf"/>\n');
document.write('<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"/>\n');
document.write('<param name="quality" value="high" />\n');
document.write(' <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="samedomain" />\n');
document.write('<embed
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
name="Sponsors"
width="900" height="100"
src="http://web.student.chalmers.se/groups/formula/2008/Sponsors.swf"
bgcolor="#000000"
quality="high"
allowscriptaccess="samedomain"
autostart=true
>
</embed>\n');
document.write('</object>\n');
}

I then have the index.php looking like:

<?php
defined( '_VALID_MOS' ) or die( 'Restricted access' );
// ISO stuff
$iso = explode( '=', _ISO );
// xml prolog
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="'. $iso[1] .'"?' .'>';
?>

<body bgcolor="#000000">

</center>

<?php mosShowHead(); ?>
<?php
if ( $my->id ) {
initEditor();
}
$user1=0;
$user2=0;
$left=0;
$right=0;
$front=0;

if(mosCountModules( 'user1' )){
$user1 = 1;
}

if(mosCountModules( 'user2' )){
$user2 = 1;
}

// left column
if ( mosCountModules( 'left' )){
$left = 1;
}

if($_REQUEST['option'] =="com_frontpage"){
$front = 1;
}

// right column
if ( mosCountModules( 'right' ) and ( empty( $_REQUEST['task'] ) || $_REQUEST['task'] != 'edit' ) ) {
$right = 1;
}
?>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; <?php echo _ISO; ?>" />
<link href="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/simplify_black/css/template_css.css" rel="stylesheet"

type="text/css" />

</head>

I'm trying to put it in the header. At the moment, i've reverted it to the standard code which works in Firefox. the website is www.chalmers.se/am/formula

Thank you in advanced

Anyone got any idea on this issue?

Same problem! even on this site IE not show the JW flv media player. Flash player 9,0,115,0 plugin installed.
Maybe it's adobe updated something? Because it was all OK some time ago.

Mar. 18, 2008andersen

@mic - sometimes it is needed to deinstall/reinstall the plugin to make it work! -
adobe flash deinstall: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157

I have the same Problems, but ...

i think, that there is a Problem with subdirs. I can use the Player in the root-dir of an domain without Problems. But if i use it in an subdir with all the same, it doesn´t run in the IE. Could be, that this is an error of flash, but i don´t think so ...

Sometimes the player loads the video.flv out of the dir, where are the players stuff. Why i dont knwo, because i´ve given a filename and a path to anonother flv

Mar. 18, 2008andersen

@django - from [url=http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=Supported_Playlists]Supported Playlists[/url] page: First, always try to use full URL's (including the http:// part) when referring to files, links or images in your playlists. It will save you a lot of troubles with unresponsive SWF's or "file not found" errors! Nine out of ten times this is because the relative-url setup isn't working. Note that the Flash plugin checks for image and MP3 files relative from the HTML page and for FLV files relative from the SWF file!

Mar. 18, 2008mic

@andersen
sometimes it is needed to deinstall/reinstall the plugin to make it work!
How can I explain it to all my site visitors? Nobody will reinstall something. It is administrator's (my) problem, not user's.

Two weeks ago all worked good. And why youtube player works?

I will try to find another flash media player or will wait until bug will be fixed.

Mar. 18, 2008andersen

@mic - dont worry, then its probably just a local plugin problem on your machine, have you tried on another or reinstalled?

Mar. 18, 2008mic

@andersen - the problem persist not only on my machine.

I found that it is problem with swfobject.js embedding.
If I embed as
<embed src="mediaplayer.swf" width="300" height="300" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" />
all is good in IE

Mar. 18, 2008mic

It's flash player autoupdate and swfobject compatibility problem.
All my embedded flash with swfobject.js (not only jw player) are disappeared in IE .
It ask me to install flash player.

There are debugging program from adobe http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/9/flashplayer_9_ax_debug.exe

But now it works on some flash objects - on some not :(.

Mar. 19, 2008Eric Oppegaard

I am having the same issue where I can view the page fine within Firefox, however others report that they cannot see the video when playing in IE7

This is the script I copied from the page:
<object data="/mediaplayer.swf?file=/demo.flv&autostart=True" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="199" height="160" align="top"
wmode="transparent">
<embed src="/mediaplayer.swf?file=/demo.flv&utostart=True" width="199" height="160" align="top"></embed>
<param name="movie" value="/mediaplayer.swf?file=/demo.flv/>
<param name="wmode" />

The page is located at http://oppieonline.com/about.html

I am also having a similar problem at http://omediaproduction.com/index.html Near the Real Estate Video section.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I feel like this would be a great place to ask about my Firefox - Explorer FLV issue:

I have a page linking to 8 other pages, with an FLV embedded on each.
Everything works well on firefox; a user can click and see all 8 clips from each page (very simple)
www.discocontinental.com/examples.

The problem is, when browsing via Explorer, the first FLV will play ok, any one of the 8 as long as it's the first to load. After that the browser will not be able to show any more video and will sometimes ask to install plug-in....

I am using a piece of script from a friend, and I am sure the HTML can look better, but still, can anyone please help me?
Thanks!
------------------------------------------------------------
Code below:
----------------------------------------------------------
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://media.dreamhost.com/ufo.js"></script>

<p id="earth.flv"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</p>
<p><script type="text/javascript">

Well at least I am not the only one having this issue...
I get the same issue trying to load an MP3 on a testing site home page, currently at http://spiritofsound.silvergateway.com
I was using Joomla 1.5.0 and upgraded to 1.5.2, since that was discused on another page. Same issue, the mp3 starts to play and as soon as the page is completed loading it cuts out.
I have used ... lets see, AllVideos Plugin, mgMediaBot2, 1pixeloutplayer, and Joomla embed media link... all have the same issue in IE6/7. But firefox works just fine.
I have tested on a number of systems and reinstalled IE, QuickTime, Flash/shockwave...
However if I just dump an <embed> link in the index.php of the template, the mp3 plays just fine in IE and FF. But that dose not help me get this audio clip to play on just the homepage.
I did have the mgMedia links working just fine in my top hits section of this site a few weeks ago, and now they don't seem to work either.... so now I have 130 static html pages for all the songs.... I started using Joomla to get away from these.
But anyway, I see that there really is not any fixes out yet, but if anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them.

Thanks in advance

Interesting, I have the exact same Problem. Everything works fine in Firefox, but nothing seems to help in IE:

The Code:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=,0,0,0" id="tx_slideshow_pi1" width="600" height="200" align="center">

<param name="movie" value="typo3conf/ext/slideshow/pi1/imagerotator.swf">

<embed src="typo3conf/ext/slideshow/pi1/imagerotator.swf" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="file=index.php%3Fid%3D18%26type%3D9005%26slideshow%3D2&rotatetime=5&transition=lines&shuffle=0&shownavigation=true&repeat=true&width=600&height=200&logo=&overstretch=false&showicons=true&backcolor=0xFFFFFF&frontcolor=0x000000&lightcolor=0x000000&screencolor=0x000000" width="600" height="200" name="tx_slideshow_pi1" align="top" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">

</embed>
</object>

So far no tip seems to work for me. Any suggestions?

Links to page for Demo: http://www.florian-rachor.de

Edit: O.K I solved the Problem for myself. I mixed up some code I think. When I deleted the <object></object> part and used only the embed code it works just fine. Thnx for your help (And for this great tool, too) anyway.

Guys,

I faced the exact same problem and here is a site that helps resolve it "http://www.mikemedia.eu/blog/index.cfm/2007/2/26/FLV-not-loading-on-IIS"

Regards,
Hamama

Apr. 26, 2008That dude

I noticed if you just try to download the flv from IE and FF, they act differently. With FF, I am ask to open/save the file when it first starts downloading. With IE the open/save dialog does not happen until the file is fully downloaded. And yes, by default IIS6.0 does not have a mime type for FLV, it does not have one for PLS (winamp/shoutcast playlist files). But I dont think mime types on the server explain these differences on the clients. Perhaps.

Apr. 28, 2008Kyle Wood

I cannot seem to get this site's player to function in IE 6. In firefox it loads up all the songs but in IE it just sits there with "click here to start" across it. Anyhelp would be appreciated.

http://samzeanahband.com/index2.html

Apr. 30, 2008andersen

@Kyle Wood - your playlist is broken! there is a </track> tag too many - try open the playlist in a webbrowser for verification

also best make sure your flash browser plugins are up to date in each browser:

adobe flash versiontest: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_15507
adobe flash uninstall: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
adobe flash install: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

May. 02, 2008Hey Anderson,

could you debug my Youtube player problem? My website, http://www.isuckatgolf.net has multiple youtube players for instruction, and none will show up in IE6 at all.

I'm at kenatisag@patmedia.net

May. 02, 2008Anderson,

Could you check my code? My youtube player isn't working in IE6 either, but neither are most of my other affiliate embedded ad links. But the main problem is the players.

Here's the code for one of the players if that helps. If you need more please let me know. I've searched everywhere and thus far can't even get anyone to respond at all.

kenatisag@patmedia.net

Thanks so much!

Hey guys
I had problems with youtube videos playing in IE through the {youtube} mambot.
My "investigations" showed that the problems are related to other scripts running on that page, more precisely slimbox.js (in my case part of lightbox).
This script is used -on my site http://www.vopus.org/es- to fade images when clicked in a nice manner.
I solved the problem by renaming this file, which killed my nice fades... For now this is the only solution i could think of, since i'm not a JavaScript expert.

Take care

@marcel

are you using a renamed or modified JW FLV Media Player ? - http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player

Jun. 13, 2008marcel

Hi Anderson.
I don't understand your question. Please be specific. thanks!

Jun. 13, 2008andersen

@marcel - what are you trying to embed ? - the player from this site (JW - Player) ? - or something different ?

Jun. 13, 2008marcel

No, not from JW - Player but from BLOGGER ref: http://tips-for-new-bloggers.blogspot.com/

Jun. 13, 2008marcel

The codes work OK with FIREFOX. But did not work for IE. Sounds like IE did not recognize it.

Jun. 13, 2008andersen

@marcel - then youll find the better answers here i think: - http://tips-for-new-bloggers.blogspot.com/search/label/MP3

but you can also try switch to the JW FLV MediaPlayer - http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player
and maybe try some experiments with the JW Wizard - http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?page=wizard&example=22

Jun. 13, 2008marcel

Thanks, Anderson. I just try to find a quick fix from you. I know the JW FLV Media player will work fine w. me. Thanks and Cheers!!!

I just solved my problem of my videos playing in Firefox but not in IE by downloading the latest version of Adobe Flash Player for IE. That is, version 9,0,124,0

It seems to work fine now.

Go to Adobe's download center at http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/

IE needs different object code, referred to as "double-object code".

There are examples here (you don't need to use swfobject): http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation

Use Search this Site for "double object" to find examples like this: http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?thread=12448#msg82368

Oct. 07, 2008Wendy

Hi,

I am unable to get the movies to be visible and work/play when viewing in IE 6 and Firefox, Mac browsers OK.
Here is a link to my page: http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/animation.htm

There should be 7 movies on the page. My code is as follows for each one:

<div id="david">
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="player">This text will be replaced</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/player.swf','mpl','250','187','9');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('flashvars','&duration=34&file=http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/david.flv&image=http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/david.jpg&stretching=exactfit');
so.write('player');
</script>
<p class="caption">David & Goliath<br>
Year 6<br>
Grasby All Saints CE Primary School</p>
</div>

I also have the following in the <Head>:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/swfobject.js"></script>

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Wendy.

@Wendy,

It looks like you have already figured out that you have to use a unique id for each container element.

If you are going to have many players on one page, it's better to use one of the multiple player methods so you don't ruin the user experience with long loading times and stuttering caused by an overloaded CPU.

Use Search this Site for multiple players" to find threads like this: http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?thread=11752 which explain the various methods for having many players on one page.

Oct. 07, 2008Wendy

Thank you for such a speedy reply. I will follow your advice, do you think that by following a multiple player method, the movies will play OK in IE?

Oct. 07, 2008Wendy

Please help,

I've checked out some threads on multiple players on one web page, though it seems that many of these threads are from people experiencing problems getting it to work in IE - just like me and my problem explained in my first thread (above)!!

I'm struggling to find my way through it all, and really would be grateful if anyone has the time out there to kindly run through how I can get my 7 movies to be visible and play correctly on one page.

My page URL and code used is in my earlier post from today.

Many thanks,

Wendy.

Oct. 11, 2008silvergateway

Interesting I do a search on my domain name silvergateway.com and I found this thread, referencing spiritofsound.silvergateay.com

(Search Gateway on this page)

Well in regards to that, it was started with a free template that had a large flash script that was built into the header. Well I did everything to fix this audio issue, including every addon thats available for Joomla (onepicsout, avr, mg, etc) none of them worked. I was able to add the <embed> script into the index.php template file, but for obvious reasons this did not look good playing on every page, when it was ment to be the clients theme song on the main page. This is apparently a known issue with IE (6 & 7) I would refrance the article but I know longer have it bookmarked.

What I gathered from these issues was that IE was having some sort of conflict with the flash that was on the page and was not forced to load the audio first on page loads. (This was a template issue) This caused the audio file to start to play in IE then stop and blank out the player. Where in FF it was a none issue.

What I did to fix it was simply to switch to a template, to one that was much better designed. From that point on I had no issue with my audio and video files. You can check out the final page at http://www.spiritofsound.ca/ I still have the theme song playing on the main page and the video files are working fine in the video section. The audio in the top hits section always worked fine due to the client wanting pop-up so they are simply static html files.

My suggestion to anyone having this issue would be to check your template and make sure it's been designed to deal with the known issues of IE, such as the png transparency, and audio / video scripting issues. Or tell your clients to use a real web browser and download FF wink
Your audio files need to be forced to load first, there are some help files on how to do this, but I did not have much luck with it, maybe you will.

Cheers and good luck with this issue, I know it was extremely frustrating.

Thank you for your reply, I am going to check out your advice and will come back tomorrow.

Note that you will need swfobject.js v2.1 from: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

There are two things that you need to do in the function flashDetection():

1) specify a minimum Flash Player version (v9.0.124 is highly recommended),

2) decide upon the notification and action to be taken when a user does not have the minimum Flash Player version.

You will need screenshots of the players (named Wendy_player1 thru 7.jpg).
A starter set is here: http://willswonders.myip.org:8085/downloads/Wendy_player_images.zip

I also re-sized your displayarea to 250x187 (player 250x207) because that is the native size of your video files. Re-sizing on the client is a real CPU hog.

Also, your videos are HUGE considering their size and length. Consider encoding them at a lower video bitrate and a lower audio sampling rate. You won't notice the difference in quality, but they will load much faster.

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Thank you so much for your time, I really appreciate it - I really am a newbie when it comes to embedding flash.

Sorry to be a pain, but how do I put into practice your points 1 and 2? And where do I put the screenshots?

Thank you again.

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Sorry, just looking at my code above and I see that you have amended it - many thanks.

I am write in thinking that you have made the necessary changes for me, and that I should now make the movie files smaller?

Thank you.

Oct. 12, 2008virtualReality

@Wendy,

You should be able to use the exact code that I posted. Possibly rename your swfobject file to swfobject-2.1.js OR change the page code to swfobject.js, whichever you prefer. Since there is a big difference in the embedding methods, I use swfobject-2.1.js to make sure that it's clear which version is being used.

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Thank you, will be tonight when I am able to sit down with it - will let you know how I get on.

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Hi again,

I have pasted your amended code onto my page, the screenshots you created are in place too and I have renamed the swfobject.js file to swfobject-2.1.js.

However, when I test the page out in the browser, I am unable to play the movies-is this because I am viewing the screenshots?

When I click on the controls nothing happens.

Please help - so near but so far!

Oct. 12, 2008virtualReality

What is the link to the test page?

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Here it is: http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/animationtest.htm

Thank you.

Oct. 12, 2008virtualReality

You are missing this file: http://www.wendyberesford.co.uk/swfobject-2.1.js

Either it has not been uploaded to your server or it is named something else. Fix that and your page will probably work. wink

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Thank u - trouble is I still can't play the movies in IE 6. I can see the screenshots and everything else tho.

Can you still help please?

Oct. 12, 2008virtualReality

The file that you have on your server named swfobject-2.1.js is really swfobject.js v1.5.

Did you obtain swfobject.js v2.1 from: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/ and upload swfobject-2.1.js to your server (you have to rename the swfobject.js in the zip to swfobject-2.1.js before you upload it).

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

no I didn't get the updated file - sorry (I am blonde)

Oct. 12, 2008virtualReality

"sorry (I am blonde)"So am I — that's a lame excuse. And I have a hyphenated Welsh last name, so I'm doubly handicapped. wink

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Brilliant - thank you it works.

I am very grateful for your help. Is there any way we could keep in touch, via email perhaps?

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

I got it, thanks.

Oct. 12, 2008virtualReality

Sure. wellitsme

That's at gmail.com wink

By the way, I loved listening to those kids read the nursery rhymes.

One other thing, you might want to set the Adobe Flash Player background color and the JW FLV Media Player background colors to 666666 to minimize the white flash when the image is replaced by the player.// instantiate the player in the new container with the matching video and image files var flashvars = { file: file, image: image, autostart: 'true', duration: '34', screencolor: '666666', stretching: 'exactfit' }; var params = { allowscriptaccess: 'always', allowfullscreen: 'true', bgcolor: '#666666' } var attributes = { id: 'mpl', name: 'mpl' };Mind the commas after each name:value pair EXCEPT THE LAST!

Oct. 12, 2008Wendy

Nope I didn't get your contact details

you need to move the </div> - to here - <div id='container0'></div> - else the script overwrites it self !!

<script type='text/javascript' src='media/swfobject.js'></script>
<div id='container0'></div>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var s1 = new SWFObject('media/player.swf','player','400','300','9');
s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
s1.addParam('wmode','opaque');
s1.addParam("menu","false");
s1.addVariable("width","400");
s1.addVariable("height","300");
s1.addParam('flashvars','file=http://192.168.0.32/Generation/user_folders/php_nine@yahoo.com/Neave.flv');

plz reply , i need solution very soon ;

Oct. 17, 2008Vasim

i have changed the div position but not seem to work yet.
firefox shows but not IE7

Oct. 17, 2008andersen

what is the flash browser plugin version in your IE7 ?
have you tried to de/reinstall it? (see previous posting)
have you tried your page from another machine ?
can you play a video from the same folder as the player ?
when i try http://192.168.0.32/Generation/user_folders/php_nine@yahoo.com/Neave.flv in the browser addressbar there is nothing there - are there supposed to be a video at that address ?

Oct. 17, 2008Vasim

i have install latest flah plugin from above link you post.

http://192.168.0.32/Generation/user_folders/php_nine@yahoo.com/Neave.flv

this is my local machine url so you can't access it.

and you think that if there is no video then how it play in firefox and in IE 6.

Oct. 17, 2008Vasim

i have read most forum related to this.
did i need flvcontroller.js ?

Oct. 17, 2008andersen

this is my local machine url so you can't access it.so i guess your test page is local also ?
you are aware that flash security prevents a server based player from accessing the local file system and vice versa ?

<h3>COMMENTARY</h3>
<h3>"Traditional Islam: Our Road Map to Peace"</h3>
<p>It is self evident to Muslims the world over that we are misunderstood as a people and a culture, while the religion of Islam itself is being maligned in the process. Governments, citizens and faith communities everywhere want us to answer for what terrorists are doing in the name of our faith. Naturally, we cannot ignore the call and must take this opportunity to answer these questions for ourselves.</p>

Today is a crucial turning point for Islam and Muslims: in its relations with the non-Muslim world; with one another, and in its responsibility as one of the world’s great religions. If as a culture and civilization, united purely by faith, Muslims fail to come forward with an approach that puts responsibility for its destiny squarely on its own shoulders, they cannot expect a bright future. For too long, as a religious community, Muslims have sought the path of blame and failed to undertake the hard work of self-critique, analysis and adjustment. It is for such purposes this conference was convened. As the follow-on to the International Conference of Islamic Scholars that took place in February 2004, this gathering of distinguished scholars and politicians deliberated issues of the gravest concern to the Muslim community and to the world at large. In doing so, they sought an opening by which to initiate the process of critical self examination, and yes, self- purification, without which the Muslim world will undoubtedly fall further into self-doubt, disintegration and alarm before the bewildering array of social, political, and spiritual changes taking place in the world today. </p>

@keith,

You're using a very obsolete method of embedding the Flash Player that we're not familiar with.

Consider upgrading to the swfobject v2.1 method: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

Nov. 20, 2008keith

it's just the embed function from youtube's website

Hi guys

The players come up fine in FF - but don't appear in IE 6 or 7 - is there something I should be adding for IE?

Here's a sample page:

http://www.billygoatkaraoke.com.au/vids/grease.html

The code is:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="player" align="center">This text will be replaced</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('player.swf','mpl','240','320','9');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('flashvars','&file=http://www.billygoatkaraoke.com.au/vids/grease.flvℑ=http://www.billygoatkaraoke.com.au/vids/grease.jpg');
so.write('player');
</script>

I like what the player does and it's ease - if I can get it working in IE, it'd be great.

Cheers

You probably need to upgrade the Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer. That's why it is common practice to use a more informative alternate content message.
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script> <div id="player" class="player"> <a href="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">Get the Adobe Flash Player to see this video.</a> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var so = new SWFObject('player.swf', 'mpl', '240', '320', '9.0.124'); so.addParam('allowscriptaccess', 'always'); so.addParam('allowfullscreen', 'true'); so.addVariable('file', 'http://www.billygoatkaraoke.com.au/vids/grease.flv'); so.addVariable('image', 'http://www.billygoatkaraoke.com.au/vids/grease.jpg'); so.write('player'); </script>

I found this thread: I'm having the same trouble. The flash (slideshow) was fine until a few weeks ago. Something happened, and now it can be seen in FF but not in IE. I've tried some of the suggestions above, but no luck. I'm rather new to flash, so I'd need "flash for idiots" instructions! Thanks in advance...

and my email is h.evans@comcast.net

Hi Folks,

Simple solution for Slimbox and Youtube imbed conflicts (Specifically - I was receiving an "Operation Aborted" alert):

I thankfully found that adding compulsory attribute (clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000) to the outer object declaration sorted the issue.

+++ References:
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation

+++ Excerpt:
"classid (outer object element only, value is always clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000)"

Hope this helps,
Nix

Hey.

Im makeing a site for a friend and we have a problem with getting the videoplayer to work in IE(Im realy starting to hate IE).

I have tested my versions of Flash and they are the newest. 10.22 if i remeber correctly.

I have also downloaded swfobject.js from the above links and upgraded that.
Ive also added flvController.js to the dir

As it is now we are opening the player in a new window.
you can see the page here:

www.jlars.dk/tv.html
We open the new window with the following code:

<a href="poelser.html" onclick="window.open (this.href, 'child', 'height=340,width=420,scrollbars'); return false"><font color="FFFFFF">ASKDLAKJSDLAKSJD</font></a>

And this is the new page. (That doesn’t work in IE)

<html>

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="flvController.js"></script>

Thank you Andersen, that did it for me too. =)

LeftHandBob, I don't know you but I could totally kiss you! You solved my problem FScommand saved the day! I Googled "FScommand" and got the answer I needed to make my .swf show up in IE.

THIS IS THE ANSWER TO OUR PROBLEMS PEOPLE!!!!

"If you publish your movie using the Flash with FSCommand template in the HTML Publish Settings, the myMovie_DoFSCommand function is inserted automatically. The movie's NAME and ID attributes will be the filename. For example, for the file myMovie.fla, the attributes would be set to myMovie ."

From: http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/actionscript_dictionary372.html

Thanks Bob!

SOLVED!!!!!!

I read through this entire thread and didn't find the help I needed. So I went to albinoblacksheep and stole their video player code.

In the following code I'm using a flv named start.flv with a swf named start_controller.swf and they are both in a folder named videos.

This code works in ALL browsers:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="videos/start_controller.swf" width="550" height="400" id="video" style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">
<param name="movie" value="videos/start_controller.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="menu" value="true" />
<param name="wmode" value="window" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />

<object width="96%" height="224" type="video/quicktime" data="videos/start.flv">
<param name="src" value="videos/start.flv" />
<param name="showlogo" value="false" />
<object width="96%" height="224" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="videos/start.flv">
<param name="movie" value="videos/start.flv" />
</object>
