[help] progressive download - fast start

i'm trying to embed a video in my page that starts playing before it's fully downloaded. i've been doing research and it seems progressive download is the way to go. only i can't seem to get it to work.
i've been using this code -

<embed src="http://streetdogsmovie.com/sdsc_1.mov"
qtsrc="http://streetdogsmovie.com/sdsc_1.mov"
width="360" height="256" autoplay="true" loop="false" controller="true"
pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/"></embed>

but it still downloads the whole thing before it plays. i know there are options to doing it this way (flash, etc) but i'd really like to know how to do it this way. i've also read about qtss (quicktime streaming server) but if your computer isn't acting as a server (on 24/7) it won't work, right?

this is day 3 with no progress...any help would be very much appreciated.

 

in the past, you had to also make the qt file itself "fast start"... i don't recall the details.

 

Are you creating the movie clip or just posting it? In order for the clip to be progressive, it has to be created that way, it's not something you make it do in HTML.
