I am quite new to the Dynamic HTML Editor, - just downloaded it yesterday.
My problem is publishing video on my website.
I have been using the "Multimedia File" button and link that to an "avi" and a "mpeg2" file.
The problem is play the file using Opera 9.24 or IE 6.0.
When I click "play" on the button, nothing happens.
I also tried publishing it as a "Real" film, and that works in IE 6.0 but not in Opera.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Hi Ter'

Maybe you file is big (> 5-10 MB), then the movie is trying to start.
I suggest to convert to FLV (Flash) and then put on your web site

If the problem is with Browser compatibility try first, the convertion then drop a line to this forum a comment.

Best regards!

When playing a video on browsers you should be sure to have installed required plugins in order to play this video. So if Opera doesn't work check on the Opera site video plugins.

Thanks for the suggestions!
It seems that I have now solved the problem.
Had to "enlarge" the box that was created for the player button in the D HTML editor so that the size of the film fitted, - if you understand what I mean.
Being new to this makes you ask unnecessary questions...
I may come back with more unnecessary questions later...

Which reminds me of a sound issue. I can put the sound widget on a page and it works fine in IE but not Firefox. But I get sound to play fine in firefox all the time and use firefox as default browser.
Why doesn't the sound widget work in firefox?

This also depends on installed browser plugins

Uhmm, maybe the code that I use to play sounds is quite different from the code used from other sites; Have you tried to play the sound in FF using the MultiMedia object instead of the Audio object?
If you want send me a link where an Audio file works in FF so I'll watch for the code used tro do this but in my FF everything works good ;-)
