WMV file problem on Mac (Cannot open the file)

[jb1981]

I could not post on the previous thread on this topic.

I saw someone said that if i gave an absolute path, then the file would work on MAC when embeded into a HTML doc.

How would i determine the absolute path if the files are burned to a CD?

macs dont have D:/whatever

Thanks for the help

Not sure what you are trying to do here.... are you trying to view a .wmv file that is on a CD?

If so, open Windows Media Player, in the file menu choose open, then navigate to the CD which should show up on your desktop.

Hope this helps...

(Get paths by opening an empty Safari window and dragging a local file into the window. Or write/find an applescript to do it for you.)

Be careful when expecting that every Window user uses D for the CD drive they'll put your CD in. ;)

Added: Also be careful expecting mac users to have a program that can play a WMV file.
