The QTSS media directory, and the webserver documents root are on
different disks in the same machine. All streaming, and movie files
are MPEG-4/AAC
Any Macintosh on our campus with QT6 and Netscape 4, 6 or 7
configured to use QTPlayer6 for streaming media, can click on those
links, QTPlayer opens and plays the movie. If they're not supposed
to, then this is what has been confusing me as to why I can't set up
Windows 2000 clients to perform the same trick :-(
The <EMBED> tag is all very nice, but I don't want (& I think I don't
need) a play button to appear on the web page. I will have a list of
links to a library of recorded files (maybe playlists), and a single
live broadcast, and clicking a link should (simply?) cause the
browser to call the apropriate media player for the client system to
deal with the stream. I am not happy about specifying
< [...] target="any-brand-name-player">
My "movies" will mostly be sound only, so specifying a size for the
"image" seems futile if the media player application opens its own
window, with all its controls available to the user.
The file.mov created by checking the QTBroadcaster box: "Record to
disk" is claimed to be a hinted movie. But do I need a separate
hint-track.sdp for each saved file.mov? It is obvious to me that
QTPlayer6 on Macintosh does not need it, and several Windows players
cannot use it, so ...
