The download-button does playback the video - its not a problem with my Quicktime setup :-).
I reverted to CVS 1.31 and it works again (changed the database-table twice manually). 1.32 did also not work, so I guess it's a problem with trying to be XHTML-compliant - or more probable: trying to be MS-compliant :-)

this is probably a conseguence of trying to avoid activex warning pop-up on IE users with latest "security" patches from Microsoft.

deekayen created a first version of workaround which should avoid those pop-up.

The workaround has been modified some times and should work now.

Can you please check if the last cvs version work with Quicktime vides for you?

Thanks.

Thanks for looking into this. I tried the latest cvs (1.36) and it's still the same problem. I revert to 1.31 and it works again. Yet: I haven't looked into the necessary database-adjustments this time. Is it necessary to change anything manually in the database from 1.31 to 1.36?

As to the popup-question: I usually use Firefox (latest version, all patches applied), but I tried, and the same problem exists in IE. IE gives a warning in the status-bar, saying "There were problems" - but that's all it says. Firefox switches to the play-view, but just doesn't display the video.

Do you have javascript enabled?

After v1.31 quicktime player drawing rely on javascript functions...
this remove the IE ActiveX pop-up ... so.. without javascript is not
possible to get the quicktime player...

We are looking for degradable solutions (which will work with or without
javascript enabled) for the pop-up issue.

Yes, I do have Javascript enabled.
Thanks for your help. For the time being I can live with 1.31. It seems I am the only one with this problem...

could you please tell us what browser (whith version) and quicktime are you using?
Moreover could you please check the bug with different browsers?

I just tried latest CVS - no change, no luck :-)

I use Firefox 1.503 and also tried on IE 6.0 sp2 all available patches applied. Quicktime is 7.1. Both browsers behave exactly alike in this particular question.

Best, and thanks for your continued efforts

I am having the same problem with the same setup as pancapangrawit. I guess i will go to 1.31 for now.

I am having this problem. I have QuickTime 7.1, which has been cause of other problems (unrelated) for me. Maybe this is Apple's fault.

It's very difficult for me to debug this issue.
I also have quicktime 7.1 but the videos are all displayed on both firefox than Internet Explorer.
Then I don't really have ideas on how the video does not work on your side...

But.. I'm working hard on changing the way video module embeds videos on drupal generated pages.
This is required to fix http://drupal.org/node/30953 ...
The video embed code will be completely changed and I hope that this issue will be fixed.

I'm not sure if it belongs here, but latest cvs does not insert the javascript file correctly in the html head because of a missing slash. With it, quicktime gets inserted correctly in "play" mode. Patch attached.

That did the trick for me, Suppasonic, thanks a lot! :-)
