Hi,
I'm a newb to Actionscript and wanted to know how to install the autostarter plugin (from the Developer wiki). It's not just a matter of clicking on "Get This!". So what am I supposed to do? Can someone help with simple instructions?
Thanks in advance!

Here is the code for the page...
<script src="/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
var s1 = new SWFObject('player.swf','player','230','193','9');
s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
s1.addParam('flashvars','file=video/default.flv&autostart=true');
s1.addVariable("repeat","none");
s1.write('preview');
</script>

var s1 = new SWFObject('player.swf', 'player', '230', '193', '9.0.124');
s1.addParam('allowfullscreen', 'true');
s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess', 'always');
s1.addVariable('file', 'video/default.flv');
s1.addVariable('autostart', 'true');
s1.addVariable('repeat', 'none');
s1.addVariable('plugins', 'autostarter');
s1.addVariable('autostarter.count', '3');
s1.write('preview');
</script>

Ok, I copied and pasted exactly what you have there into my page. I reloaded and reloaded, but no success. It still plays every time. I adjusted the count to '1', also. Still no success.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Yeah, it works quite well. I'm up to 55 counts before it will autostart.

I tried to use what you posted - adjusting it to play my movie. It still didn't work. This time, it doesn't play unless I push "play". I tried emptying my cache and clearing cookies, but still no luck!
Help!
David K
You have to clear the cookie manually.
Search for "com.jeroenwijering.autostarter".
I found it in: C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\PQ6WPL39\willswonders.myip.org
I'm sorry but i've the same problem.
I've found and deleted the cookie file but the player still play everytime even if I define the autostarter.count to 1.
What can I do ?
Can you paste a link to a page demonstrating the error?
First we need to know what style of player embedding code you are using.
