When inserting a Flash Video file in your page, you can also insert code to detect whether the user has the correct version of the Flash Player to view the Flash Video. If they dont have the correct version, they will be prompted to download the latest version of Flash Player.
A different version of Flash Player may be needed to view a Flash Video depending on the codec used to create the video. If your video was created with the Sorenson Squeeze codec, site visitors will need Flash Player 7 or later to play progressive download video, and theyll need Flash Player 6.0.79 or later to play streaming video. If your video was created with the On2 codec, site visitors will need Flash Player 8 or later.
If the Flash Video is already in your page, delete it and insert it again with the option selected.
NOTE |
|
If you insert another Flash Video that requires a higher version of Flash Player than the first video, the detection code will prompt the user to download it. |
If you decide to remove the Flash Video from your page, you no longer need the detection code. You can use Dreamweaver to remove it.
