I use an object tag, and sometimes an embed tag (which I had to  
create since it is deprecated and not part of Seaside).

Here are the methods I use for quicktime and wmv:  (myVideoURL  
returns an http url to the video served by apache.)

quicktimeVideoOn: html
	((self session headerAt: 'user-agent') match: '*IE*')
		ifTrue: [
			html object
				width: '418px';
				height: '313px';
				id: 'stepVideo';
				standby: 'loading quicktime movie';
				classId: 'clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B';
				codebase: 'http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab';
		
				with: [
					html parameter name: 'src'; value: self myVideoURL.
					html parameter name: 'autoplay'; value: 'true'.
					html parameter name: 'controller'; value: 'false'.
					html parameter name: 'loop'; value: 'false']]
		ifFalse: [
			html embed
				attributeAt: 'src' put: self myVideoURL;
				attributeAt: 'controller' put: 'false';
				attributeAt: 'loop' put: 'false';
				attributeAt: 'scale' put: 'Aspect';
				attributeAt: 'pluginspage' put: '"http://www.apple.com/quicktime/ 
download/';
				
				type: 'video/quicktime';
				width: '418px';
				height: '313px';
				url: self currentStepVideoUrl].
	
	^ true

wmvVideoOn: html
	html object
		type: 'video/x-ms-wmv';
		width: '418px';
		height: '313px';
		id: 'stepVideo';
		standby: 'loading windows movie';
		url: self myVideoURL;
		with: [
			html parameter name: 'url'; value: self myVideoURL.
			html parameter name: 'autostart'; value: 'true'.
			html parameter name: 'controller'; value: 'false'].
	
	^ true

I haven't (but I will after looking at IMDB...) - but I'm familiar  
with the actor :-)
