Help Embedding Video???

I want to have an embedded video in one of my sites. The problem is that I know nothing about this. I don't want to use a youtube.com setup. I want to host the video myself and use Quicktime to display it to visitors. Any help is much appreciated.

thx

There ya go

 

If you want it super simple you can upload the video to YouTube and then just use that embed code Hehe

 

Thanks but if you read my original post you will see that I am trying to avoid this.

This works fine with one problem. I can't seem to get the controller to display. I set the value to true but it still doesn't show up. Any ideas?

Hope that helps

 

i just used a CMS with video gallery scripts so much easier, i had the same problem as jawinn and i had to use php so i could parse the filename ie index.php?filename=video.mov too complicated to call names from database and everything so video gallery works best for me but wish you all the best heh

 

I figured this out. It was an oversight on my part. Thanks again for the help.

 

thnaks guys for this post - i succeeded to embed my video and it's working great
