I believe I am doing everything correctly, but my video won't play.  The name of the video is spartan_block.wmv.  I uploaded it to our server in the images/stories/videos folder (and also made sure this is specified in the parameters of the plugin)  Inside my article I used the code {wmv}spartan_block{/wmv}

The box opens to play the video, but when I click on the play button nothing happens.  What's going on?  Is there a size limit?  The video is 6.3 MB  Does it make a difference that the file jw_allvideos.php has permission 644?

Take a look:  www.sdst.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=713&Itemid=441

I need to fix this quickly.  Thank you for your help.


Note:  I never could get the wmv file to work.  I converted it to a flv file and it worked fine but it's 4 times the size of the windows media player file.  I'd still like to know what's going wrong.

Did you figure this out? I am having the same issue

I am haining the same problem, however the issue with me is the video will play on the page from the live host but not on a design page I have on the localhost.
