Embedded component with Quicktime media

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8 Framework UI

I’ve only had limited success getting the Embedded component to properly handle a quicktime movie. I’ve learned:

  1. You must set the type to Embedded.TYPE_BROWSER rather than Embedded.TYPE_OBJECT. The latter creates an empty HTML element.
  2. Optional parameters specified by “embedded.setParameter(“blah”,“blah”)” are not making it to the HTML.

Because of #2 there is no way to cause the controller bar to appear at the bottom of the windows.

Have I misunderstood the use of the Embedded component? Should the Embedded.TYPE_OBJECT be working in this case?

AAAAHHHH finally i got my answer why my embedded flash was not displaying in firefox 4 (in all other browser (firefox 3.6, ie, safari, etc.) it was displayed correctly)! I used the Embedded.TYPE_OBJECT instead of Embedded.TYPE_BROWSER. After the change to Embedded.TYPE_BROWSER now everything works fine in FF4

Thanks for your question, that pointed me in the right direction…
