Embed MMS video

    Is it possible to embed a MMS code into a post so that readers can watch the video stream directly? I was sent this code to embed, but it doesn’t seem to work:

    <OBJECT ID=”MediaPlayer” WIDTH=”320″ HEIGHT=”300″ CLASSID=”CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95″
    STANDBY=”Loading Windows Media Player components…” TYPE=”application/x-oleobject”>
    <PARAM NAME=”FileName” VALUE=”mms://wbmswebcast1.worldbank.org/EXT/2013-04-23/Floating_on_Malayan_Breeze.wmv”>
    <PARAM name=”autostart” VALUE=”true”>
    <PARAM name=”ShowControls” VALUE=”true”>
    <param name=”ShowStatusBar” value=”true”>
    <PARAM name=”ShowDisplay” VALUE=”false”>
    <EMBED SRC=”mms://wbmswebcast1.worldbank.org/EXT/2013-04-23/Floating_on_Malayan_Breeze.wmv”
    WIDTH=”320″ HEIGHT=”300″ autostart=”true” TYPE=”application/x-mplayer2″ filename=”mms://wbmswebcast1.worldbank.org/EXT/2013-04-23/Floating_on_Malayan_Breeze.wmv”
    ShowControls=”true” ShowStatusBar=”true” ShowDisplay=”false”> </EMBED>
    </OBJECT>

    Hi,

    That code won’t work in WordPress.com due to security concerns. My suggestion would be to download the video and upload it to a video sharing service (a la YouTube).

    You can then embed the YouTube link using the shortcode described on this page:

    Cheers!
