Streaming video requires cooperating software on the WEB server and the
client computer. Macromedia Flash is a good example of this.

You will have to contact your ISP WEB host to see what software is
available for this, or run from your own WEB server. Those who wish to
view your clips would have to agree to have the same software on their
computers, genreally installed from server WEB page. One can generally
count on their ISP rent going up for this, as streaming video can use
much more bandwidth.

What you are doing now is pretty straight forward and standard HTML.
It would be the same for viewing a PDF file for that matter. For most
people this is best, with short clips that download quickly or maybe an
optional long clip for those who want to download the whole thing.

Cheers...
