Video Attributes

After selecting Video from the Multimedia Elements section of the Element Gallery dialog, click the ghost text “Click here to define the Video” Element or click the Element Tool icon and select Video to open the Video Attributes dialog.

After a video is set, you can make changes by again selecting Video.

• Video Source File - Press the Edit button to add a video source file. If a video already exists, pressing this button lets you change it.
• Height and Width - Sets the video’s height and width in pixels. CommonSpot scales the video to fit in this area.
• Window Mode - Choose from Transparent, Opaque, or Window.
• MIME Type -The video’s HTML MIME type.
• ClassID -The class ID that is used for the video object CommonSpot inserts into the page.

Note: The CommonSpot default ClassID-value for video Elements is compatible with MediaPlayer versions 7 through 10.0 (6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6). However, for certain formats to display properly in Internet Explore you may need to specify a different ClassID for versions earlier than 7 or later than 10.0, for example, MediaPlayer version 6.4 (22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95).

• Hide for CommonSpot Menus - Shows/hides this Element when popup menus associated with links on this page display. By default, CommonSpot hides Elements that obstruct menus displayed on a page. Set this option to No to explicitly show this Element when CommonSpot menus display.

Click Save to save the settings and return to the page.
