Thanks for the reply. I have tried setting it to the full http path, and
it still does not play. I displays the first frame of the movie, as if it
finds it, but then does not play. It as if there is some sort of
"autoplay" feature turned off. When I tell it to show the controller,
then you can manually start the video.
Also, why does the property inspector (cast member property) always revert
back to the path c:\my documents\yada yada, when I expressly set it to
"@\movies\goofy.mov" ?
updated links follow, sorry for the previous typos:

I have gone off the digest, hoping to remedy this quicker. I am
stumped....

It will probably work if you set the member's filename to the full path.

I don't believe the member's properties retain the typed-in path anymore -
at least not since D7. AFAIK, they revert back to the imported/linked
path.
Try importing the QT from the web server rather than a local drive.
P.S. You missed a directory name in two of the above links, "mario".
