Answer 1

Try this simple one:

<embed src="videos/1.wmv" width="600" height="470" type="video/x-ms-wmv"></embed>

Answer 2

you can try this one: classid=CLSID:clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6

Answer 3

Your object doesn't seem to have the source of the video specified. The embed has, but not the object

<SPAN id="music1"> 
<OBJECT  style="width:560px; height:300px; margin-left: 0px" id="mediaPlayer"
codeBase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/
en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701" type="application/x-oleobject"
standby="Loading Microsoft Windows Media Player components..."
classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95">
    <PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE="videos/1.wmv">

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://microsoft.com/windows
/mediaplayer/en/download/" bgcolor="darkblue" showcontrols="true" 
showpositioncontrols="true" showstatusbar="tue" showgotobar="true"
src="videos/1.wmv" autostart="true" designtimesp="5311"
loop="true" height="600" width="470" />

</OBJECT>
</SPAN>

You could also try to let go the object alltogether and just rely on the embed.

Answer 4

Try using

<video width="320" height="240" controls="controls">
  <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
  <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg" />
  Your browser does not support the video tag.
