This guide will help you to convert your videos to Flash FLV Video and will also help you to add it to your homepage. Google Video and Youtube are also using Flash Video but you might not want to use them for your video clips and by converting the clips yourself you can get better quality. Remember that sharing video on your homepage requires a lot of homepage bandwidth.
