18- Adding Movie/Video File to an iWeb Page via the Export for Web Menu Option in Quicktime Player This will create a simple feedback form that will email the contents of the text box to the email address of your choice with the Subject title that you choose for the emails. 1 - Open the movie file in Quicktime Player and go to the File->Save for Web menu option.
2 - In the next window select Desktop option.

For the blue URL you should use your MobileMe account name and your movie folder name in place of Test Movie. The width pixel value should be 20 pixels greater than the movie's width and the height 30 pixels greater than the movie's height. This will allow for the movie to be centered in the snippet and have the controller visible. You may have to adjust the values as necessary. A demonstration of this technique can be viewed in Section B of this demo page. Thanks to Kyn Drake for his input into the Apple Discussion topic Topic: using Quicktime’s “Export for Web” feature in iWeb from which I got the code and information used in creating the demo page and this tutorial.
