I have a sales page that I'm working on that I need the video auto play to work. I've got it set up right now to where it works in all other browsers, but will not work in Internet Explorer browser. Is there a setting, or a way to code the html? Help me please!

    For IE I use jwplayer from longtailvideo (.) com

    <center>
    <!-- START OF THE PLAYER EMBEDDING TO COPY-PASTE -->
    <object id="player" classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" name="player" width="600" height="480">
    <param name="movie" value="jwplayer/player.swf" />
    <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
    <param name="autostart" value="true" />
    <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
    <param name="flashvars" value="file=http://YOURSITE.com/video/YOURVIDEO.mp4&image=img/YOURIMAGE.jpg&autostart=true" />
    <embed
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    id="player2"
    name="player2"
    src="jwplayer/player.swf"
    width="600"
    height="480"
    allowscriptaccess="always"
    allowfullscreen="true"
    flashvars="file=http://YOURSITE.com/video/YOURVIDEO.mp4&image=img/YOURIMAGE.jpg&autostart=true"
    />
    </object>
    <!-- END OF THE PLAYER EMBEDDING -->
    </center>

    As you can see, the player.swf file is in a folder (jwplayer)

    This plays perfect in IE

      If you're using Camtasia's video player you want to go to your "config" file and open it in Notepad. Look for the line I bolded and make sure you have a 1 and not a 0 between the brackets.

      (Additionally, on your own computer IE will sometimes not allow you to play your own stuff depending on your security settings.)

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <main>
      <config>
      <hasPipVideo type="Boolean">0</hasPipVideo>
      <hasPipOverlay type="Boolean">0</hasPipOverlay>
      <hasToc type="Boolean">0</hasToc>
      <hasAudio type="Boolean">0</hasAudio>
      <mainVidIsFlv type="Boolean">1</mainVidIsFlv>
      <skinTheme>classic</skinTheme>
      <autoStart type="Boolean">1</autoStart>
