video embed disable autoplay

[mikeo1313]

here is the code

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="270" width="320" data="http://blip.tv/play/AbK+MAA">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
<param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
<param name="movie" value="http://blip.tv/play/AbK+MAA" />
</object>..


Then I add this line.
<param name="autoStart" value="false">
it doesn't autoplay, GREAT. BUT, when I put this on my myspace page, it doesn't autoplay ONCE. but thereafter myspace automatically removes the autostart param above and it autoplays thereafter.

Any suggestions?

If MySpace is changing your source code, if that's what you are saying, you would have to ask them. It may be their policy to play videos, or at least the first video on a given page. I notice that when someone has the MySpace generic jukebox on a page, it always starts in autoplay mode.

The bottom line with hosts like MySpace is - If you want more control over how your content is displayed and/or featured, get your own site.
