embed a vlc wmv stream in html document

i have successfully created a wmv webcam stream with vlc located at http://localhost:8080/stream.wmv by using the following command:

  cvlc v4l2:// :v4l2-vdev="/dev/video0" --sout '#transcode{vcodec=wmv2,vb=800,scale=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access    =http{mime=video/x-ms-wmv},mux=asf,dst=:8080/stream.wmv}}' --no-sout-audio &

i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to embed this stream into a html webpage via windows media plugin.

i have been using this code but it doesn't seem to work

i am able to see the plugin when i pull up the html file...but it says "connecting to media" and then it says "ready" when i push play nothing happens.

also i can see the stream if i open it as a network stream in vlc.  so i know the stream is there.
