How To Stream A Quicktime Movie From My Website?

I'll preface this by saying I know very little about web authoring at the moment. I have Frontpage & Dreamweaver, I know a little bit about Frontpage. Nothing yet about Dreamweaver.

All I want to do is to be able to upload .mov files to my site and steam them into SL. I don't neccessarily care if it's accessable to people visiting my website. Right now I have a home page with a link to a video page. I have a folder that contains the uploaded .mov(s) And now I'm stuck. Where, and how do I embed the Quictime file? I've used the "export to web" option through my QT player and have all the different files, ie: poster.jpg, .mov, mv4, and the instructions that say simply paste this code in your header page, and this code in your body page. Uh ha. And when I do that, I get the reference movie shown with a huge question mark inside it.

I've searched this Forum, and I've searched the Web, but can't seem to find anything that explains the process on how to do this in "idiots" language.

Can anyone help, or is the scope of what I'm asking beyond this Forum?

You only want to stream/show the movies in SL?
Simplest method, assuming you own the land or have media access granted group permissions...
In the client window, World menu, About Land... in that window, click the Media tab, now click the Texture box, and choose the same screen texture that you have chosen, in your inventory (rez a suitable sized prim with the same unique texture on one face), next.. click the media set button, and put in the full http url that points to the actual media file on your webhost (i.e. http://www.mywebsite.com/movies/mymovie.mov), next use the drop down box and choose the correct media type (i.e. Movie). If you have enabled movies from your preferences, you should now see a play button appear, close the About Land window, now in the edit window of your screen prim, check the 'Select Texture' box and click that prim face that has your texture on it, now click the play button. In the texture tab of the edit window, down at the bottom, is a Align button, click that and the movie should fill the whole screen. Close the edit window and enjoy your movie.
To change the movie, go into the About Land window and change the url.

There maybe two reasons you have a Q logo with a question mark.. the url is pointing to the wrong location... or you do not have QuickTime installed.
You cannot play media in SL that is hosted on a html page, it will not render it.
If this is what is happening when you are developing the website in Dreamweaver, then there is a good chance you do not have the pluggin installed for playing QT media within the programme, and would need to be hosted first.

It is so much easier to show someone how to do all this, and even smarter/cleaner methods, IM me ingame and I'll show you first hand.

I'm familiar with the Second Life end as far as playing them. It's on my website where I'm having the problem. I'm not sure how to link, or where to put all the pieces of the quicktime movie.

Clearly I misread....

I have the code that will sort that for you, but for some cranky reason, I cannot post it here, IM me ingame and I'll drop it to you.

Can you do that to me also.

code sent in world, sadly it would not show on the forums..

Possibly the code wouldn't display because it had the words

s e l e c t , f r o m ,
u p d a t e , s e t ,
i n s e r t , i n t o ,
d e l e t e , f r o m ,

in it without doing something like sticking spaces between the letters to evade the bug described in jira issue

http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-917 " Http 403 FORBIDDEN response when posting to forums"

also some combination of periods and slashes sets this off.

Alternately, a screenshot of the code would work, or a link to a site with the code, such as one can make at http://cl1p.net/

It actually included 'embed' so despite altering it in many ways, giving instructions of 'remove this space, replace the @ with a <' etc, the instructions were 10 times longer than the code lol, which was only 3 lines.

I dropped the code in text form to those that asked for it. Hopefully it worked out of the can.
