0	Hi, Your browser support html5, you can easily add video using html tag <video width="320" height="240" controls="controls"> <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> </video> For more information refer http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_videos.asp Blessy Baby Digitalmesh Softech pvt Ltd https://blessybaby.wordpress.com/ Sankettt, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	This is normally done as Ndebata suggested. but normally you would upload the video in yotube and generate the markup that will be an Object and paste it in your webpage.

0	This does not look right. You mean the video is in the Root of your website ? Better create a video folder in your project and Convert your code to this <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="~/Videos/2008-07-09-01.wmv" name="MediaPlayer" width="482" height="350" showcontrols="1" showstatusbar="0" showdisplay="0" autostart="0"> Thank you for posting at Dotnetfunda [Administrator] Sankettt, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
