You have to get the code for it. Is it a home video or an artist video?

First you need your videos to be online somewhere - I assume you've already managed to upload them to your myspace ? Then you'll need to embed some script into your myspace page. You can just stick it in to the About Me section and it will autorun the script when ever anyone goes to your page.

Here's some script for using Windows Media Player to play stuff :

embed allowScriptAccess="never" TYPE="application/x-mplayer2" SRC="http://www.mywebsite.com/myvideo.mpg" NAME="MediaPlayer" PLUGINSPAGE="http://windowsmedia.com/download/download.asp" AllowChangeDisplaySize="1" AnimationAtStart="0" AutoStart="1" Autosize="0" TransparentAtStart="1" ShowStatusBar="" ShowSeekBar="0" ShowDisplay="0" ShowGotoBar="0" ShowCaptioning="0" ShowControls="1" ShowAudioControls="-1" ShowPositionControls="-1" ShowTracker="0" CONTROLTYPE="0" WIDTH="300" HEIGHT="25">

Important - you'll need to put a < at the very beginning of the script, just before the word "embed" - I had to remove it as it tried to embed the script in my post rather than show it as text.

You'll also need to change the bit in bold to point to wherever your videos are located. I assume, if you have more than one video, that you can enter the name of a playlist rather than a specific mpg. If you want them to play automatically you'll need AutoStart="1" (which it is in the above example). You may also need to mess around with some of the other settings to get it to work, but it's fairly straghtforward so you shouldn't have any problems with it.

I hope this works for you (it should), but I basically just copied this script from my org profile, which, if you go visit it automatically starts playing EMC Radio, the best radio station on the planet.

biggrin What's so annoying? All you have to do is press the stop button. Or you can prevent them from starting in the first place.

yeah, i've done that but they start playing before you can do anything if you don't have that selected. And they just gave people that option. I still have residual anger about the issue. razz

Hehe. I understand your anger. What used to get to me, back in the dial-up days, was those direct dialers. Used to bloody infuriate me. Thankfully, those days are gone now, well, for me anyway. biggrin
