As far as I know a flash file will not auto play unless specifically coded to do so. I don't know much about this stuff though. I couldn't even get your video to play though to test anything. Where did you get the code? It looks like it's invalide with some extra/duplicate tags.

on the original site page there is a "share" button that gives the code.........

thanks anyway
