We have a video that I need to put on one of the company's web sites. It is in avi format. Where do I find the script or do I need a converter. I am like a kid in a sand box playing when everyone else is in the house doing chores. I have missed out on what needs to be done to add the video and make it work
Thanks

.avi is not a very good file format for the Web, I suggest you transcode to Flash .flv or even to a Windows .wmv. These will compress the file to a size much more Web friendly. When you transcode, aim for a bitrate of 300 – 400 kbps at least. The display size should also be reduced to minimize downloading time (320 X 240 pixels is typical). You should be getting about 1 minute of video for every 4 or 5 MB of file size. Compare the size of the .avi file, MB per minutes of video to see why it is not a good choice.
Once you have a Web friendly video file, visit a couple of Web sites that display video and take a look at their source code to see how to display the video on the page.
I like to use a piece of JavaScript called SWFObject to display .flv video. Here is more info:

Here is an example of a custom player for .flv files, updated via an xml file:

Hey guys.
I maintain a website for an mma fighter and he sends me videos he receives from the places he fights. However. I cant figure out how to separate his fight in the menu and convert it to a flv or wma file to upload it to the site. I think its in an ISO format if that makes sense. If not I can verify the file format. I have swish video editor. but thats of no help. thanks

It would be helpful to know what type of video file you are working with. ISO describes more of a disk image or duplicate than the type of video file. Can you open the video and watch it?
For cutting up .avi or mpeg video there is a pretty good free video editor called VirtualDub:
http://www.virtualdub.org/
If the video is an .avi or mpeg, you can edit the video, cut out the parts you don't want, or cut out the part you do want and same that as a new file. It won't solve the problem of converting to a .flv or .wmv (well maybe .wmv). So you'll still need to do a little work after editing to just the one fighter.

Like she said. What software are you using for the iso? Daemon tools? Nero?
The reason most will mount in an iso format for video, is to allow it easily burn to a dvd or cd.
There are a number of ways to convert it. Convert the actual video, capture the video when it plays to your PC in a common video format. Then convert it.
There are a number of decent free or trialware tools to do this with, depending if you only have to do this once in blue moon or on a regular basis.
Is the video going to run inside flash (swf) or html website? and what software are you using for the website? i.e flash 8, dreamweaver etc.
A quick solution is to play it to your pc and capture the video with a program like snagit (30 day free trial software which will allow to determine if its something you feel comfortable using) and just start the capture at the point past the menu. This will capture it in a avi format and you can use some conversion software, that will convert it to flv. Freeware link is listed above.

The answer to the query can be the link below:
http://www.2createawebsite.com/enhance/adding-video.html
Follow the instructions and i am sure you will be able to successfully embed video to website.:)
To add more:
If you are aware of "WYSIWYG Website Builder Software", then try those, there you will find option to load video, and you don't have to code there.....Once you have loaded video there, simply checked in browser, and if you are confirm that video is working then just copy the code from there and place it in the desired web page.:)

You can use a simple Flash Video Player (http://video.a4desk.com) software -- which allows you to easy convert AVI, MPG, WMV movie into FLV format, then choose a video player skin, and then insert into your website. Check out http://video.a4desk.com
