From: Simon Holloway on 10 Nov 2009 06:50 I created a video using Windows Movie maker and saved as .wmp file. I saved it to my computer and then inserted on my web page under Front Page 2003. Nothing! I then converted the file to avi format - still nothing! I then tried mpeg4 still nothing. The manual is next to useless on this subject. Anyone tell me what I need to do so that when a user opens up the page the video plays automatically. -- Simon Holloway
From: Ronx on 10 Nov 2009 07:40 Save as a .wmv and insert a suitable player into the page. For IE only, Insert->Web Component->Advanced Controls->ActiveX Control Click Next Choose Windows Media Player Right click on the object inserted, and choose Active X Control Properties Fill in the dialogue. Note that when published, the media will have to download before being seen. A better plan is to convert the video to a flash movie, and insert the flash movie - I think these stream from the server, and can be seen in almost every browser. -- Ron Symonds Microsoft MVP (Expression Web) http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/fp Reply only to group - emails will be deleted unread.

I've struggled now for hours trying to get a video to play on page load with my Frontpage 2003 web and it doesn't happen according to the help instructions. I was able to make a video play from the web, but it will open Windows Media Player to play the video. To do this: Import the video file to your computer's web, create a link from text or image to the file.
