How to Embed powerpoint in html?

Is there a way to choose the exact player I want to use to embed videos in HTML?

  • Whenever I use the <object> or <embed> tags to embed videos on my sites they always use the same media players eg. when I embed a flash video it always uses adobe flash player, when I embed an mp4 video it always uses quicktime etc. I know browsers use these players by default but i want to know if there is a way to use my own custom players??? and how do I do this using HTMl code?

  • Answer:

    Actually, the player used is determined by the MIME type on the user's computer. If you change the MIME type for mp4 to specify a different player, a different player will start, it has nothing to do with the HTML code. At least, I think that's how it works... it worked for me.
