embedded video

I have a number of video clips on my website embedded in the pages.... the Photo Story 3 stories and WMV9 files play fine... but WMV7 and WMV8 files just sit there looking black...
Perhaps it's just my system... I'm working on an 800x24 pixel embedded video on the main page of my website... www.papajoh.org - and checking to see how it looks on various systems... the current one is a WMV8 file which gives me the smallest file size and looks good... I was amazed that the smallest good looking PS3 file I could make is 3 times the size of the WMV8.
Thanks for any checks and comments... -- PapaJohn

I just swapped it out with a V9 movie file... I resolved the quality issue with it. MM2 interprets the 800x24 pixel dimensions of my custom profile as 44x24 pixels when I'm working in widescreen 16:9 mode, but only for the V9 codec. When I change to standard 4:3 mode, it interprets it correctly at 800x24.
