Swf and quicktime files Options

[kiadiddy]

I posted this in another form sorry i am a new user here. What i am trying to do is have a quicktime movie play then at the end of the movie playing have a .swf file take over and play. If this doesn't make sense please let me know. I have searched all over the internet with no luck.

Hi, there's a couple of things you could investigate.

The first is using the quicktime plugin, there is an embed tag called qtnext which will play another movie after the first one finishes. This might work, although there is a move away from plugins and it's sure not to work in 100% of browsers 100% of the time.

Then there's SMIL. Again not sure of how well that will work.

Probably at this point and considering you want to play a quicktime and a swf, you might be able to do it entirely in flash. Again not going to play everywhere.

Lastly and I haven't looked into this feature, but you could check out the JWPlayer which has support for playlists.

Hey thanks any help is greatly appreciated the QuickTime file would run as a basic add for other content on my website then the .swf file is a game that's why I'm looking to have it close then call the .swf file afterwards. I'm going to check out that player as soon as I get home to see if it will work
