I want the user to be able to use the embedded Windows
Media Player just like one uses the embedded Quicktime.
i.e. the file downloads and the user can wait with the
video paused until enough of the file has downloaded for
smooth playback of the whol file, not just however long
their buffer setting is set for. Is there some way to
force the WM player to download the file to a cache or
something so viewers with a slow connection can just wait
for high-quality video to download?

It seems that this problem is related to the MPlayer 6.4
(I've posted a message on this issue: "WMP 6.4 versus 7.X
cache").
The only available component I've found for embedded video
was similar to the MPlayer 6.4. Do you know if there is a
newer component that includes a "codebase" for automatic
download of it?
