Embedding MPEG-4 into html

I have a MPEG-4 movie which I created with FCP. I would like to embed it on a webpage so it can be viewed.

I have Quicktime 6 installed, as well as the QT6 plugin for IE.

I am not sure what file extension I need to put on the file...FCP created the file with ".mp4". But I when I try this on the web, it tells me I do not have the plugin installed. I also tried changing the extension to ".mpg", and ".mpg4" to no avail.


This is the html I am using:

<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" WIDTH="160"HEIGHT="120" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab">
<PARAM name="SRC" VALUE="video/wide_eyed_160x120.mp4">
<PARAM name="AUTOPLAY" VALUE="true">
<PARAM name="CONTROLLER" VALUE="false">
<EMBED SRC="video/wide_eyed_160x120.mp4" WIDTH="160" HEIGHT="120" AUTOPLAY="true" CONTROLLER="false" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>



Any help or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave

Hmm, I dunno exactly how (sorry) but if you saved a reference movie to the mp4 file as a .mov then that would be recognized by the browser and then load the mp4.

Apple's web tutorial for Quicktime

But I'm with OwlBoy: change the suffix to "mov" and see how that goes.

is this where the signature goes?
