this looks useful:

One thing to consider: The user should have the choice whether he/she will
download a large file. So maybe the embedding code below should be used on a
linked page .. (i.e. you tell the user what they are about to download, and
give them a link in case they want to follow it)
<object NAME="Player" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="240" align="left" hspace="10"
type="application/x-oleobject"
CLASSID="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6">

<param NAME="URL" VALUE="yourfile.wmv><param>
<param NAME="AUTOSTART" VALUE="false"></param>
<param name="showControls" value="true"></param>

<embed WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="240" align="left" hspace="10" SRC="yourfile.wmv"
TYPE="application/x-oleobject" AUTOSTART="false">

</embed>

</object>
