Importing web media (QuickTime, RealMedia, Windows Media, etc.)

[John R]

When I try to import a compressed video file into my web
using the Insert --> file command path I recieve the
following error. "could not load [file path]."
I know frontpage should support Windows Media, but I cant
upload the file to the host server. The server was set
up to recognize FrontPage as opposed to a standard FTP
configuration and I really don't want to change. Can you
help me figure out how to make the frontpage import
functiohn support .wmv extensions? Thanks.

Use File Import and create a link to the file in your web
And get the WM addin at http://www.microsoft.com/frontpage/downloads/addin/default.asp

Thanks Stephen,

I downloaded the Windows Media add-on pack, but I still
can't import .wmv files, I was able to create one
streaming video file with the Active X wizard but when I
tried to create another one I could never connect to the
WPP server long enough to finish uploading the files.
