Best way to embed a video to a blog?
A frequently-asked query:
Hello,
I am using WordPress for a blog and want to embed a video.
What I did was take my camcorder video, converted it to an H.264 format in the Adobe Media Converter. I then uploaded it to Photobucket which converted it to to an FLV and gave me the HTLM to embed it in the blog. Is this the best way to do it? WordPress only allows files up to 4 Mb, so that is too small for what I am doing.
If that is good. Where are the best places to host videos?

FLV is the best video format for streaming video on the Internet.
You can upload your video to Youtube which accepts video up to 100MB. If you want to host it by your own, you need to find a web server and a web-based FLV player to stream FLV online.
For the web player, you can check Moyea Web Player – http://www.playerdiy.com/
