Appreciated Steve's set-up example. But I am having a problem with the
ref.mov I made, when it is called from the HTML code, I get this error
message from the QT Player app:
"Couldn't open the file "my file name" because an unknown error occurred.
The number of the error is -3285."
I am using Apple's make ref mov X application, and uploading it to the http
server using Dreamweaver. Locally, when I launch the ref.mov from the Finder
it seems to work OK. Only when being called from the server (WebStar) do I
get the above error. Funny, but in the finder it is a 4k file, whereas in DW
it shows up as 1k in the site window. Suspicious. I've had several issues
working with DW MX since making the upgrade to WebStar V. So this may be a
DW issue???
Any thoughts what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance.
