I have told this video to stop autoplaying and to show a menu.

It ignores me. Well, I do see a menu if I right click.

Here is the code I've tried

Code:
<center><object id="mymoviename" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="510" height="330" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://cex.cebuexperience.com/video/betm_text.swf?menu=true&amp;play=false" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="510" height="330" src="http://cex.cebuexperience.com/video/betm_text.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" name="mymoviename" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></object></center>
Thanks for the help.

    Rusty,

    First, be aware that your code contains, as it should, both <EMBED> tags for Netscape browsers, and <OBJECT> tags for IE browser. So you'll need to turn off autoplay in both places.


    Try adding AUTOSTART=FALSE to your EMBED tag.

    Then insert <PARAM NAME=autostart VALUE=false> between your existing PARAM tags.
