6 HOW TO EMBED “WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER” IN BLOGS.

Writing a great article sometimes,isn't complete without embedding a video and/or an audio file to it.

It is highly required when you are posting a practical tech-related tutorial or most times on a news niche,whereby the file makes the post even more explanatory.

So,what if you have the link to a video,how do you embed it in a blog(post)?

In this tutorial,I'll be showing you two easy ways to embed the Windows Media Player in a blog to stream live videos & audio files for visitors to easily watch and listen to.

[Video adapted from google.]

Here's How...

  1. The first way is by adding the media player as a gadget in the sidebar.
    • Login to Blogger.
    • Navigate to Layout » `Add a gadget` » HTML/JAVASCRIPT
    • Copy-Paste the code below and save the widget.
  2. The second method is by embedding the player in each blog-post.
    This can be done by pasting the code below in each post.

Here's the Media-player's code...

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" name="mediaplayer1" ShowStatusBar="true" EnableContextMenu="false"
autostart="false"
width="350"
height="250" loop="false"
src="VIDEO/AUDIO LINK" />

CUSTOMIZATION.

Change the settings of this player to suit you (Optional).

Autostart→ Change this value to "True" if you want the video/audio to start streaming automatically upon visiting the post[Not recommended].
Width/Height→ Change these values respectively to suit you taste.
Loop→ Force the video/audio to loop constantly.

That's all.Just make sure you get a valid url.

3 HOW TO ADD HTML ENCODE/DECODE TOOL WIDGET TO BLOGS.

There are times whereby you might need to post an Html tag as plain text most especially for bloggers in “Blog niches”.
It is also needed when a visitor has to write some codes in the comment box.

Although,Blogger has really made it easier to post “html” codes as plain text in the New blogger dashboard,it still isn't helpful in situations when you need some other tags to function in a post.
So,to solve this,a tool has been provided by Centricle.com to make posting of codes easier and faster.

Here's How It Works...

When a html code is inputed in the textbox,the “Encode” button needs to be pressed,and the result when posted,is shown as live codes.

To integrate this widget in your blog,just Copy-Paste the following code snippet preferably into a Page[Learn how to create pages on blogger.]
