Any computer people able to help with website design issue?

Maybe RobD or other webmasters?

I have some videos I need to display on a website I am building. It is important that these videos stream, and are not downloaded.

They are in .wmv, .asf and .avi formats.

I've never incorporated videos with web design, so I am clueless. Researched and tried, but it wouldn't work for a majority of computers, only a select few.

Thanks!

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

something like this where it loads on the page and you press play?

The best choice is real video...
to make a streamig for a real video, you have to create two files:
the first, the video, with extension .rm
the second, a text file with only the url o the video uploaded, and then renamed to .ram
it works very well i you can find space to upload! (my main problem!)

I worked on tv for long time, and we made a lot of tests there in order to put on the web our programs... and the bests results were in real video...
but wmv it's ok too...specially if you can use big bandwith

Thanks - I'm lucky we have tech people on the boards.

For this real - do I need to buy any software? How can I turn my existing videos to .rm?

depends of which software do you use to work on video...
if you work with vegas video or have the cleaner installed, you don't need anymore.
If not, I think that there are some free tools to encode to .rm at www.real.com
