Was not too sure where to put this post but I went here just to decide.

I would like to know how compatible the embed tag is. This video is hosted from my high speed connection but it may slow or be choppy, target speed is 150 kbps. So can you view it and what is your operating system?

do you mean you just want people to let you know how it looks on their machines and then tell you their operating system?

if it is Showcase & Critiques would be best for this thread, if not then sorry I’ve missed the point…what do you mean?

No NO, I don’t care about the video critique, I just want to know if you can see it and if it is streaming ok. I made no attempt at cross compatibility and was curious at how universal the embed tag is and if other operating systems will pick it up and play it. You can critique the video if you want (no need to critique, it’s just a fun little thing I threw together for my friends, I don’t want people judging my tallent on it), really just curious about the 2 things I listed above. Thanks

Some people have done similar things in Showcase & Critique and always got plenty of feedback. Just does this work on your system stuff, I’ve seen it quite regurally over there. I just mean you’ll struggle here, the client side forum is kinda quiet. You’ll get feedback on that thread…promise

as for your video, sorry I only have a crappy dial up and it was taking to long to download…sorry ☹
