Adding Audio & Video Clips

I was wondering what the best way is to add audio and video clips to websites. I can't afford a streaming server at this time.

I have used the <embed> element and have set the autostart param to false but it seems like all the clips on the page must load before the page finishes loading. I would prefer the clips to load only when the user clicks on the particular clip. Also is there a way to size the audio control?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

helix basic streaming server is free for the first year but you'll have to register in order to get your free registration code.

heres how i embed a clip using miscrosoft's media server

<code><font color="#FF0000" size="2">
<embed src="mms://myserver/videos/sample1.mpg" autostart="true" controls="true" loop="true" width="325" height="325"></embed>
</code>

and heres what i use to make a real media clip



<code>
<br><OBJECT ID=RealPlayer CLASSID="clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA" WIDTH=325 HEIGHT=325>
<br><PARAM NAME="SRC" VALUE="http://myserver/videos/test.rm">
<br><PARAM NAME="CONSOLE" VALUE="one">
<br><PARAM NAME="AUTOSTART" VALUE="false">
<br><PARAM NAME="CONTROLS" VALUE="ImageWindow">
<br></OBJECT>
<br><OBJECT ID=RealPlayer CLASSID="clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA" WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=35">
<br><PARAM NAME="CONSOLE" VALUE="one">
<br><PARAM NAME="SRC" VALUE="clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA">
<br><PARAM NAME="CONTROLS" VALUE="ControlPanel">
<br></OBJECT>
</code>

Thanks for the info about the Helix server - do you know how that works? I tried to look for info on the site, but didn't see much. I'm a total neophyte in this area and wondering whether there would be any benefits to and/or what the benefits would be of installing that?

My embed code is similar to yours.
