The Book place

Modifying the attributes of the tag enables you to modify how the video is presented.
Video clips inserted this way play back in whatever players are available, just as linked video clips do.
The Assets panel includes a Movies category that holds QuickTime movies, MPEG videos, and Windows
Media file types. As with all the other Assets panel categories, you must click the Refresh Site List button
(the curved arrow at the bottom of the Assets panel) to initially populate the panel with all the movies in
the current site. The preview pane includes a Play button for displaying the movies before they are inserted
in the page.
To embed a simple video clip in a Web page, follow these steps:
1. Choose Insert ??? Media ??? Plugin. Alternatively, you can select the Plugin object from the Media
menu of the Insert bar found in the Common category or drag the file from the Movie category of
the Assets panel to your Web page.
2. If you inserted a Plugin object, select the video file in the Select File dialog box. Movies dragged
onto the page from the Assets panel already include the source path. The Plugin placeholder is
displayed as a 32 ?— 32 icon.
