  1. This post causes my browser to launch a separate Quicktime window each time I visit the blog.

  2. What browser are you on? It was auto launching for me on Firefox, but I fixed that. IE and Firefox are working for me fine. No pop-up and no auto start. Anyone else seeing this? I'm curious if this happens on Safari, but I don't have Safari on me.

    Mac OSX 10.4.8

  4. Safari seems to work fine but acted strange in Camino

  5. 3rduncle do you have Firefox as well? I'm going to see if I can have someone I know try it. My posts stay up for three days then they hit the archives, so that's worst case. The Kirin site shows the Widows Media Player icon for the vids and they are .asx files. I'm guessing Quicktime is trying to launch them and Firefox in Mac isn't respecting the Autostart="0" attribute for the embedded html. Firefox in Windows wasn't respecting Autostart="false" so I changed it to "0" and that seemed to do the trick with the last problem. I'll check Google groups and see if I can find a fix.

  7. 1. Yes, it needlessly autolaunces in Safari which is annoying even though I like YMO.

  8. Tried at work running OSX 10.4.8. Safari 2.0.4 and Firefox 2.0 worked fine but Camino 1.0 still not launching correctly.

  9. I heard back from a friend. Here's what he had to say:

    "I ran ff v1.5.08 and v1.5.09 and I got no popup. I updated to ff v2.0.0.1 and I got no popup. I have the WMP stuff installed though.
    I ran safari 2.04 and I got no popup."

    Let me know how bad you think it is. I can change it to an image that you click on to launch the video. I'd of course prefer to leave it embedded because I just think it's cooler to watch that way. But at the same time I don't want this to happen every time I put up an embedded video that way. I'm hoping I can find a solution before the next time I put one up. YouTube and Google Video I'm guessing are fine.

    BTW, if this does happen again, please comment and let me know.

  10. Not sure there is a "popup" involved here. The video just plays in place (in Safari for me)...yes, YouTube and Google Video are fine - lest every video start playing everytime we load your page! EEEK! :-)

  11. Viewing mine fine in Firefox on Intel-Mac. Anyway - anyone spot the Little Phatty?

  12. How about now? I made a slight change Let me know if it auto-starts. Refresh the page to be sure it's not cashed.

  13. Still plays in automatically in Safari - please take this off the page now - it is driving me insane! ;-)

  14. Yes me too!

    Every time I come here this mad Japanese stuff starts playing over what I'm listening too and it's bloody annoying! I'm not coming back until it's fallen off the blog...

  15. I'm using the Flip4Mac WMV plugin to play WMV and ASX content in Safari/OS X 10.4.8. The clip plays automatically for me as well.

    The Flip4Mac plugin settings (in the System Preferences), under the Movie tab, has options to disable automatic playback, but oddly, these are being ignored on this page. The plugin also lets you change the background fill color for clips that don't fill the frame, but that is also being ignored. Perhaps because the page is frame-based? No idea, but it's annoying nonetheless.

  16. Ok, it's off. I replaced it with the image off the site instead. Thanks for bearing with me folks.
