Embeded Mp3 player problems

[Zaine7673]

Hi everyone. I'm pretty new to web designing. I'm just trying to get a site together for my music (to promote it.) Just registered today because i desperately need some help/advice on a few problems with my embedded mp3 player. On certain pages it plays so so slowly (the music is actually playing at a slower tempo) and on other pages it doesnt play at all. I'd appreciate any help at all. I could give you guys more info but im not too sure what kind is required.

Thanks

Can you give us a link to the page so we can see for ourselves, and also tell us what program you made the embedded mp3 player in, it could be something as simple as your computer lagging due to insufficient memory, or it could be an actual code problem.

It depends on how many connections you have opened on your site. A lot of times, Internet Explorer is set to two and if user's don't change it, it might take a few extra milli-seconds to open.

Having said that, I have used something like

HTML: Select all

<object id="MediaPlayer" width="320" height="286"
classid="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95"
standby="Loading Microsoft® Windows® Media Player components..."
type="application/x-oleobject"
codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=6,4,7,1112">
<param name="filename" VALUE="interview_fox_video.asx">
<param name="autoStart" VALUE="true">               
<param name="showControls" VALUE="true">
<param name="ShowStatusBar" value="true">
<param name="Autorewind" VALUE="true">
<param name="ShowDisplay" VALUE="false">   
<embed src="interview_fox_video.asx" width="320" height="286" type="application/x-mplayer2" name=MediaPlayer autostart=1 showcontrols=0 showstatusbar=1 autorewind=1 showdisplay=0>
</embed></object>

in the past to help. Just change the path (interview_fox_video.asx) in both places to the path of your file.
