title: Embedding MP4 video with the windows media player plugin
body: <p>I would like to embed an MP4 video into a webpage of mine. 
  At first I was setting the plugin to Quicktime player, but the movie wasn't playing smoothly so I decided to use the Windows Media Player plugin. All of this works, except for users with WinXP. Is there a trick to make it work on WinXP too? This is the HTML I have used:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;object classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" width="300" height="150" data="test.mp4" url="test.mp4" type="video/x-ms-asf"&gt;
  &lt;param name="url" value="test.mp4"&gt;
  &lt;param name="filename" value="test.mp4"&gt;
  &lt;param name="autostart" value="1"&gt;
  &lt;param name="autosize" value="1"&gt;
  &lt;embed src="test.mp4" type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" width="300" height="150" autostart="true" scale="tofit"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;
  &lt;/object&gt;
  </code></pre>
