Re: install active x without itunes ?

As an alternative, you might consider MPEG-1 VBR.

I've got a music video here:
http://www.lobecandy.com/video.php

If you look at the www page source, you can see how to use <EMBED><NOEMBED> to
intertwix with ActiveX. I believe I'm doing a minor browser detection on the server side
with PHP and then making slight changes to the tags emitted, but the video is the same
MPEG-1 file regardless as to whether Windows or Mac is browsing. Additionally, MPEG-1
should play fine in IE under classic and if you include a vanilla HTTP link to the file,
can be played back on Linux as well.

Other applications of MPEG-1, including HD delivery are discussed on the samples page
for my MPEG encoder, MegaPEG.X, here:

I'm embedding a quicktime video clip in a web page (using object+embed
tags), and it works great if the user has quicktime installed.

But for a Windows/IE user who does not have the active x control, it
redirects the to a download for iTunes + Quicktime.

I like iTunes and all, but would rather not force a 20 Mb download
just to view a couple of embedded video clips.... is there way to
install just the Active X control, on it's own, without iTunes ?

appreciate any help on this,

rob.
