Quick Time plug in

[badblu]

Hello

I was wondering how ca add a quick time plug in so can show movie clips, because at the moment i upload th quick time file to my sever and then i just post the link to the file 9/10 times its shows a blank page and takes 5 minutes for the clip to loaf and in that time people just close the blank screen.

So what i want is a system where it loads a new window with the quick time player which shows that the movie is loading how can i do this.

Take a look at an example link from my site
http://www.aus-scifi.com/uploads/sta...ailer.9.02.mpg
(as you may or may not notice a blank screen shows up while its loading and right before the clip starts the quick time logo finally appearers what i want is for the page to load with the quick time player already there which show the viewer that the clip is downloading)

An example of what i want can be found at http://www.sg1archive.com/news/12670.shtml i want my window to load like that one dose.

That link is broken so i can't test it. Sounds to me like your server is just too slow.

Old topic, but same issue...
Is there a way to show video's (mpg / avi / flv) without first downloading the whole file?

P.S.
Using vB 4.1.3

You would need to setup your server to stream video... Most servers aren't setup to stream. It has nothing to do with vBulletin, I'm sure it can be googled.
