I want to put video clips that i took from my digital camera on to xanga. Can someone please tell me how I can add a windows Media Player in my entry so when people press play, they can see the video i took? Thanks!

put this code where you want the video...

<embed src="URL of video" controller=true autoplay=true loop=false>

i recommend converting your videos to wmv cause the file size is smaller meaning it won't take forever and a day to download... if you have win xp, it comes with windows movie maker but if you don't you can search on google for a video converting software that will serve this purpose...

where do i put that code if i want to show it in a regular entry?

do i post it in the weblog entry like where i write everything else? also, how do i get the url file. my video from my camera aren't on any sites.

yeah... you just put the code in your entry... but make sure you click the "edit html" button before you insert the code =]

thanks, but i still don't understand where i find the url of my file.

lets say you have a movie called movie.wma you have to upload it to another server so let's say you upload it to something called www.movieserver.com (http://www.movieserver.com) then your url would be "www.movieserver.com/movie.wma (http://www.movieserver.com/movie.wma)"

if you don't have a place to host your movies and you want to put one that you found on the internet, then you would put the url of the movie...meaning, the location

thanks, but the code still doesn't work. all it shows is a little box with a dot inside.

copy the exact code that you are using...

okay, do you know where i can host .avi video files? that way, i can get the URL there

search the forum for free webhosts... you don't have to make a website there if you don't want to, just upload all of your movies to them...

can i put quicktime videos?
