Quicktime mov doesn't play

May 5, 2012 2:36 PM

hi,

 

it used to work but now quicktime movies in my flash content doens't play.

sometimes it works in safari but not in firefox.

 

for example go to

www.heeboklee.com

hit 'enter'

go to 'page 3'(bottom)

and in the middle of list there is 'voice of whale'

and click 'quick time(52meg)' link.

 

it opends a window but nothing happens.

 

this is the script that is put on the button.

 

on(release) {

    getURL("javascript:showQuicktime('movies/voiceofWhale_2.mov','Voice of Whale',420,222);");

}

 

and i put my movie under 'movies' folder and have 'showQuicktime.js' under 'Scripts' folder.

any idea why it doesn't play quicktime movie?

 

thanks for your help in advance.

    Sorry... I wish I had an answer for you. But I have been having the same issue. Your java code looks good to me. I have to get my issue resolved because I really wanted to use this on my page but I have had to temporarily remove it. Hoping someone on here can help us out. Maybe I will put it back up so someone can check it out at: Shakeology

    There seems to be a small discrepency in the size. Your code above says 420x222 but the embedded size is 420x238. May be an issue, may not. I also notice you're calling an ActiveEx controller.  I don't know anything much about it, but is that appropriate?
