.mp4 or .wmv ?

I accept both but the best would be mp4 in JW Player.

wow, thanks for the quick response.

im not the biggest on messing with video. i was going to just link the .video file to a thumb of the video.

but it sounds like your talking about one of those players that plays it right on the page?

maybe a bump in the right direction if anyone knows a good read up on this?

as always, thank you.

If I click it & the movie plays on the page pr an external program, I'm happy. But, I do like embedded vids MUCH better.

anyone knows a good read up on this?

JW Player's page (http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/) has an example along with the code download.

That being said I still use .mpg files on free sites since the galleries are recycled from making TGP galleries and some of the TGPs that I submit to don't allow embedded videos but it is what I use on all the paysites that I manage. That and no player is needed for mpg although they don't play on mobile devices like the iPhone.

oh, i just noticed sponsors like sextronix for example have video embed codes available that pull it from their servers, is this acceptable to linklists to have in a freesite gallery?
