Idk but this line looks suspicious to me...
SRC="<?php "'$path' . '$file'" ?>"
Thats the first thing, and that could be the reason...

echo '<form action=" ' . $_SERVER['php_self'] . ' " method="post">';

//running the while loop

please excuse me but I don't know how to get the video into this equasion. I'm somewhat new to PHP but I'm building elements here and there and learning as I go on some projects. I'd like to host my own videos for my demo reel in my own server space and build a rad embedded video playback page for each video that I have to host locally. this looks like the right direction but I don't know how to anchor the video to it. please excuse the newbe request. thnks
