Abstract

An embed code that can be copied from a first web site for placement in a second web site by users is disclosed. The embed code will render a content object from the second web site on a number of supported platforms. Autonomously, the embed code chooses from multiple playback options to choose one for the web browser rendering the embed code, for example, Flash,™ HTML5, Silverlight,™ or a media player. Wherever the embed code is placed in a web site, a wide range of end user devices are supported without needing to reference other locations on the Internet, i.e., the embed code alone can automatically configure to play on that wide range of end user devices. The content object may be hosted or stored in various locations with the embed code accessing the proper version of the end user device.
