First of all, I am a compunumpty grade 1. I chat regularly to a group of like minded folks concerning aircraft accidents. I have server space available from a business I have. What I would like to do is to be able to upload, movies and clips from certain tv programs, I guess a little bit like youtube but for Accident investigation/CRM folks, to enable discussion and debate to take place.

Is there a file format I should change these movies/programs in to that would allow video streaming at a decent speed? We think uploading then streaming is better than having to download clips from the website. Do I need to upload any special software on to the server to facilitate this? I will get someone that knows, to do it, I am just trying to get an idea of time taken and any cost I may incur as this will not be a commercial site. We are aware of copyright issues etc.Thanks:ok:
