    I’m new to WordPress so this may be a basic question.

    I need to show two videos on a page – no problem showing the youtube one in a frame but my mov video just shows as a line of text. That line opens to video when I click on it but I want a player frame to show.

    Posting this at the end of my lunchbreak so can’t give more details right now – but any suggestions please?

    Here’s my problem

    I’ve got wordpress running on a localhost (macbook) and want to show a mov file in a frame. I’ve added this code:

    a href=’https://localhost:8888/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/1_filename-003-6-2.mov’>1_filename 003 (6) (2)</a

    <> enclose the above – removed to allow posting of the code

    This gives me the line ‘1_filename 003 (6) (2)’ when published. Clicking on that line launches the video player quicktime player. I want to show a frame, not a line of text.

    I’m using a silverlight player but have tried several others.

    Anyone able to help?
