See my pages that can be reached at

You can usually embed the player at any size you wish or hide it. In
most cases you can use an ordinary object that often contains several
parameters. In a very few cases you may have to provide an ActiveX
object path for IE browsers only if you want them to stream rather than
download. If you think that some of this gets complicated, you are
right. We now have a media player and format war that makes the old
browser war seem tame on comparison. This is to be expected for media.
We also now have a format war for the new high definition DVDs just
beginning to appear.
