BBCode Question

[RJDiogenes]

Hi, all. I wonder if anyone here can answer a BBCode (or maybe it's HTML) question. At another Board where I'm an Admin, I have a member who uses a video hosting site called LiveVideo; it's like YouTube, only different. I already made a YouTube embedding code, so I wanted to have a similar LiveVideo code for this site. Easy enough to do with a little research, except for one problem: The video plays automatically. Here's my code:

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
src="http://www.livevideo.com/flvplayer/embed/{TEXT}" quality="high" play="false" width="445" height="369" wmode="transparent" />

I thought adding the 'play="false" parameter would fix it, but no. All the other parameters work, so I can't figure out why that one won't. I did a little Googling for other custom LiveVideo codes and found a couple, and they both seem to have the same problem.

Any ideas? Thank you.

Common autoplay tags are "start", "autostart", "play", and "autoplay". Also try using numerals (1, 0) instead of true/false.

I think for FLVs the usual parameter is "autoplay".

That's great. I will try that. Thank you very much.
