FYI 

 

Looking for a way to store and play video as native as possible, with as few
files and as little mark up as possible, in as many browsers as possible.
(for me the hosting environment is SharePoint, but this should be mostly a
mark-up issue. Will likely be using a lot of Camtasia Relay and MediaMill
source files, to a lesser degree some will only be flash).

 

Kind of thing we are using now...

 

 

 

 

<!cript src="/_layouts/1033/images/csom/Scripts/swfobject_modified.js"
