The *.qtl MIME type is not generally in the default configuration for web servers so you'll need to take care of that with your server admin (see below). Failing that, you can add the following to your embed/object coding:

TYPE="MIMEtype" (optional)
TYPE="MIMEtype" specifies the MIME type of the EMBED file, which in turn determines which plug-in to load. Use the TYPE attribute for a plug-in that requires no data, for example, a plug-in that draws an analog clock or fetches all of its data dynamically. For a visible plug-in, you must include both the WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes if you use TYPE; no default values are used.

Note: The functionality of this attribute is only supported by Netscape Navigator, version 2.0 or later.

For example:

<embed type="video/quicktime" width="200" height="240">



Map the .mov file extension to the video/quicktime MIME type.
Map the .qti and .qtif file extensions to the image/x-quicktime MIME type.
Map the .pntg file extension to the image/x-macpaint MIME type.
Map the .qtl file extension to the application/x-quicktimeplayer MIME type.

QTSRC= "URL" (optional...requires QuickTime 4)
This attribute allows content developers to force a browser to use the QuickTime Plug-in for a file no matter what its MIME type is. The attribute treats it's value as a URL to load, and ignores any data loaded by the browser from the "src" parameter.

For example:

<EMBED src="sample.mov" qtsrc="rtsp://www.apple.com/quicktime/movies/sample2.mov";>
