I’ve decided to stop using embedded video and audio. Everybody moans. Awwwww….
Sorry, but the problem with it is the setup phase, which can be seen in the status bar message, “Connecting to media.” When there are several of these on the same page, the load time takes too long, especially if the hosting service is busy. The server is in Phoenix, by the way.
From now on what I’ll do for video is take a screen shot and make it a link to the file. The videos will appear in their original size, 320×240 pixels, and you’ll have to use your media player to make them bigger. For audio I’ll try to find a picture to use for the link, but failing that there will instead be a text link.
