Safari Mpeg playback

[kukident]

Hello,

I searched the forum, but couldn't find an answer to my question:

Safari doesn't seem to play back MPEGs...
Am I missing something?

My server is sending them with a mime type of video/mpeg (I also specify the mimetype in the embed tag) and I embed them as follows (minus the linebreaks which I put in for easier viewing):

<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" WIDTH="256" 
HEIGHT="192" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab">
<PARAM NAME="SRC" VALUE="some.mpeg">
<PARAM NAME="BORDER" VALUE="0">
<PARAM NAME="CACHE" VALUE="true">
<PARAM NAME="CONTROLLER" VALUE="true">
<PARAM NAME="SCALE" VALUE="aspect">
<PARAM NAME="PLUGINSPAGE" VALUE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
<PARAM NAME="BORDER" VALUE="0">
<PARAM NAME="TYPE" VALUE="video/mpeg">
<PARAM NAME="BGCOLOR" VALUE="#F0F0F0">
<EMBED SRC="some.mpeg" WIDTH="256" HEIGHT="192" BORDER="0" CACHE="true" 
CONTROLLER="true" SCALE="aspect" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" 
TYPE="video/mpeg" BGCOLOR="#F0F0F0"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

Safari tells me that there is no plugin to play video/mpeg...

Any thoughts?
Thanks

my guess is, it is in .mpg format. usually this requires Media player installed in the user/viewer system that's plug to the web-browser.

im referring to the Safari message.

' Safari tells me that there is no plugin to play video/mpeg... '

this is just my assumption. i might be wrong.
