Hello:

I'd like to insert a video file into my web page using FP. Tried but did
not work. I can convert my video to any format as long as it will play (as
we see in the YouTube web site), and with control buttons.

Could anyone show me what file format and how to insert? I did Insert -
Picture - Video but did not work. All it shows on the web is an icon.
Please see http://www.seto.cc/index2.html.

What did I do wrong?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,
Amy

I installed and tried to insert. But it says "You can't insert a Media
Player unless a web is open". What does this mean and how do I do it?

Thank you again.

File | Open Web (or Site if FP 2003)

You must have an actual web created and open, not just a page.

I'm still not sure how to do it. Is a web an .html file? I just want to
share some videos with my family so it's going to be very simple. An .html
page with some videos.

So could you tell me what exactly to look for when the dialog box opens up
from File | Open Web?

Thank you again.

Did you actually create a web before you started creating pages? You must
have a web, not just pages.

If you haven't created a web, check the help files for instructions.

Re: Inserting a video file by Chris

Chris
Thu Feb 07 17:40:04 CST 2008

you need to click file/ open web (or file/ open site).
don't click file/ open.
the first way will open a web for you and your video tool will work, the
second way and you'll open a page without it's containing web and your video
tool won't work.
file/ open and file/ open site are diabolically similar names with very
different results.

FWIW there's also a ridiculously simple video tool here:
http://coffeecup.com and there's always www.soapbox.msn.com which is nice
since all you want to do is share video with family and such.
