Aberrations Vol. IV



As promised, here is our short film. Hope you enjoy it! If not, it's only 5 minutes and 18 seconds of your life.



Thanks for the streaming help. Anyone know what I need to add to the html code so that the Quicktime controls show? This is the embed tagging I'm using:
(EMBED SRC="aberrations.mov" WIDTH=240 HEIGHT = 196 AUTOPLAY=true CONTROLLER=true LOOP=false PLUGINSPAGE=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/")

I saved the video and it is 320x240, so your code has it too small. It should be:

EMBED SRC="aberrations.mov" WIDTH=320 HEIGHT=256

(The height is the size of the movie, plus 16 pixels for the controller.)

Also, I notice you forgot the opening quote mark on the PLUGINSPACE code. I don't think it affects anything...

That was code I lifted from stager.org Totally didn't proofread. Bad hand-coder, bad!

EMBED's kind of deprecated at this point. OBJECT is the tag you're looking for.

[object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" width="320"height="256" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"]
[param name="SRC" value="aberrations.mov" /]
[param name="AUTOPLAY" value="true" /]
[param name="CONTROLLER" value="true" /]
[param name="LOOP" value="false" /]
[/object]

IE's the only browser that gives a damn about the clsid, but the rest is pretty much the standard at this point, unless you're worried about Netscape 4 (in which case you could put the EMBED tag right before the closing OBJECT tag).
