Best way to use .mov files on web?

[Blake Steele]

Hi,

I have a slide show with music that I want to come up quickly in good quality. A great example is at: http://www.mayyoubeblessedmovie.com/

It is high quality images and music. It looks like it is a swf file from the code:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" width="595" height="437" id="mybb3" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="mybb3.swf" /><param name="loop" value="false" /><param name="menu" value="false" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /><embed src="mybb3.swf" loop="false" menu="false" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="595" height="437" name="mybb3" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

Is the best thing to do encode a .mov file to flash or can you compress a .mov file for streaming? Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks
