Works on Mac, but not PC

[kingkahuna]

I have a custom built video player that works fine on a Mac, but when a client tried to view on a PC, she got the player controls and audio, but no video. Yikes! Could this be her version of FlashPlayer? Or something up with the FLV? Any ideas?

Here's the link to the clip:

Howdy and Welcome... :)

That page works fine on my FF2 with Flash Player 9, but it does not on my IE6 with Flash Player 7... So, I am assuming that you need to set what the minimal requirement to view the site is and enforce it somehow...

You might want to check on the SWFObject for implementing it...

THanks CB. I'll try the JS you sent. The only browser it didn't work on with OSX is IE 5.2 which I read has issues with Flash anyway.

Hi CB, I came across another IE issue: the getURL call is not working with OSX/FP9/IE5. I looked on Adobe's site for a fix and they came up with either

a) use HTML code allowScriptAccess="always" (didn't work)
b) change getURL to call a _blank window (messes up my navigation design)

Any ideas for this incompatability? (Other than a browser switch.)

Nope... I am not familiar with that issue... and please don't call me CB... ;)
