no progress bar in my quicktime movies, using CS4
by Rob Wilton on May 20, 2009 at 4:38:14 pm

Dear all,

Ive been trying to add progress bars (I think theyre called progressive download bars?) to the bottom of my quicktime videos,
so the people looking at my site can see the loading and can fastforward the video as well.

Ive found some info on the COW forums, but nothing super specific...

Ive "hinted" all my quicktime videos, and still my videos just load and play:

any suggestions?????
thanks for your help!

Rob

Try adding a little space to the height for the controller. I believe you need 16 pixels.

<td height="300" align="center"><embed src="HOMECOMINGdopSMALLYYY.mov" width="587" height="330"> </embed></td>

Add 16 pixels



<td height="300" align="center"><embed src="HOMECOMINGdopSMALLYYY.mov" width="587" height="346"> </embed></td>

See if that works.

Cheers Fernando, but that doesnt work unfortunately.

In dreamweaver I embedded the video through - insert / media / plugin.

Remove the height of your table cell and see if that works

<td height="300" align="center"><embed src="HOMECOMINGdopSMALLYYY.mov" width="587" height="346"> </embed></td>

Is your movie a SD video with letterbox? If that's true, the movie is cropped.
