Video
This is a lot trickier than images, but luckily, I can help. There are two ways of placing video on your blog, embedded and external. I’m more a fan of embedded, and I’ll show you how to put video in your blog. Remember that depending on the file type you’re using (.mov, .avi. wmv) visitors will need different plugins in order to see the video.
To embed a video, use the following tag
[EMBED SRC="File Address" HEIGHT=File Height WIDTH=File width AUTOPLAY="TRUE" CONTROLLER="TRUE" PLUGINSPAGE="Plugin page”> ]This will embed a video which will begin playing when the page is opened and has the full set of playback controls. If you don’t want the video to play when the page opens, set the AUTOPLAY to equal “FALSE”. To hide the playback controls, set the CONTROLLER to equal “FALSE”.
Plugins can be fond on line and are required for the video to be viewed. Here are some plugin tags for common video types.
Quicktime (.mov files)
[PLUGINSPAGE=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/]Windows Media (.wmv files)
[Playerpluginspage=http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/"]
