RE: [WSG] Streamline a video question

Hi Brett,

 

It's inadvisable to auto-play video content, but a lot depends on the
actual content.

 

Getting video to autostart depends on the deployment method chosen.

Personally I highly recommend  the JW FLV media player for online
delivery: http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Media_Player

 

For the more advanced here's an alternative implementation method:

Subject: [WSG] Streamline a video question

 

I am trying to put a video on the Web, but I cannot get it to play
automatically. I want to have them stream so that they will play
immediately instead of lagging a minute or so when clicked on. Is there
a standard/recommended way to do this? Links for reading about it would
be greatly appreciated.
