video in dreamweaver

[wallie32]

As a raw recruit to Dreamweaver I would like an answer to the following question:
I produced a small video in Adobe Premiere in Windows Media format (wmv)
I would like this video to play when a web page is opened.
How is this done in Dreamweaver 4.0? I can see buttons on the Object Panel for Fireworks and Shockwave but nothing for Windows video.
Thanks for any help
Wallie

Did you get an answer to your video question?

I have just tried the same thing using Ulead VideoStudio, saving as a Windows .avi file.

I cannot find a way to get it to register in the Assets folder and from there to place on the page using the Insert routine.
Photos are fine, but not the video clip.

Can you help?

Thanks

I know more then a little about bout both.

First I need to know if you are up on Flash?

I made a CD ROM containing video using DW MX and Flash MX.

The *.wmv file was embedded in the Flash movie, complete with start/stop/play buttons. The Flash was then placed on the HTML page. I can't demo it - because it was for CD use the files are way too heavy for web use.

But the principle would happily apply to a web based video.

PS. If anyone wonders why I didn't use the Flash projector instead.....I also used the CD to carry a web site so entering the movie via an HTML page made sense.
