Wow, I KNOW you can do that but I'm struggling to remember the tag. I think it was something like playbackcontrols=off... I know it was something like that as you could turn them on or off rather easily.

@ oboymikee: You have to put autostart='1' & loop="1" & showcontrols='0' (or <param name='autoStart' value="true">, <param name='loop' value="true">, ect.), or which will start the media as soon as it is loaded.
