Embedded Quicktime Randomized Playlist.

[AntoneHenry]

Alright Here's My Embedded Player:

<object codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" width="395" scale="16:9"classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" height="225" ><param name="src" value="DIRECT PATH TO MEDIA" align="right"/><param name="controller" value="True" /><param name="autoplay" value="True" /><param name="cache" value="False" /><param name="kioskmode" value="False" /><param name="scale" value="tofit" /><embed src="DIRECT PATH TO MEDIA" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" scale="tofit" kioskmode="False" qtsrc="DIERECT PATH TO MEDIA" cache="False" height="225" width="395" scale="aspect"  controller="True" type="video/quicktime" autoplay="True" QTNEXT1="<DIRECT PATH TO MEDIA> T<myself>" QTNEXT2="GOTO0"></embed></object>

Now I want to know if I can take the

QTNEXT#="<PATH> T<myself>"

and turn that into:

QTNEXT#="<RANDOM PATH FROM LIST OF URLS> T<myself>"

Any help is appreciated!

got it myself...

I figured out what you meant by the php thing. I got it to work awesome for both media player and quicktime.

I just made a random url php file:

<?php

// Go to a random URL
// http://www.bloodys.com/
// email: info@bloodys.com
// If you use this script, please put a link back to http://www.bloodys.com/

$url[0] = "http://PATH TO MEDIA";
$url[1] = "http://PATH TO MEDIA";
$url[2] = "http://PATH TO MEDIA";
$url[3] = "http://PATH TO MEDIA";
$url[4] = "http://PATH TO MEDIA";
$url[5] = "http://PATH TO MEDIA";


srand ((double)microtime()*1000000);
$randomnum = rand(0, count($url)-1);
header ("Location: $url[$randomnum]");
?>

You can make this file by putting it in Notepad, and saving it as "random.php" or something of the sorts.

Then in the Embedding code, use the URL to the PHP file in the place where you would normally put the URL of the media.
