insert url of a video in a html code

I created a site on my brother's wedding!
I use the software and can insert videos, but what I made was too big! so I uploaded on google video!
Now I'd like to find a bb code or HTML code to add my video on my site!
I do not want people clicking on the link and land on google video!
I wish that the video is displayed directly on my site!
Can you help me?
code?
thank you in advance!

Transfer your video directly from your host and put a link on a web page of your site.

Re: insert url of a video in a html code

This tag allows you to insert a video clip into your web page. The starting tag is <EMBED SRC="URL" WIDTH="XX" HEIGHT="XX" AUTOSTART="VALUE"> and the closing tag is </EMBED>. Nothing goes between the two tags.

URL is replaced with the internet address of the video file. The two XX's are replaced with the desired width and height of the movie and controls. VALUE is replaced with either

TRUE - Movie automatically starts
FALSE - Movie starts when play button is pushed

index.html - Notepad
....<BODY>

<EMBED SRC="video.avi" WIDTH="125" HEIGHT="150" AUTOSTART="FALSE">

</EMBED>

</BODY>....

Method 1
1. Click on the Insert/Edit Embedded Media button (green coloured icon, centre right of the middle row of buttons). A new window comes up.
2. Makes sure FLASH is selected in the TYPE field.
3. Paste the YouTube web address (URL) of the video clip into the FILE/URL field.
4. Click in the DIMENSIONS field and the video should appear in the preview window below. You can either leave the dimensions as they are or type in any other dimensions in pixels that you want.
5. This method does not appear to work for YouTube playlists and Real News video feeds. Use method 2 below for these.
Method 2
1. Click on the HTML button at the top of the on-site word processor (located at the centre of the middle row of buttons) The HTML editor will appear.
2. Launch another browser tab, go to the relevant YouTube page and copy the embed code next to the YouTube clip.
3. Paste the code into the HTML editor at whatever location you prefer.
4. Click on the update button at the bottom of the HTML editor. The space occupied by the clip will now appear in the article coloured yellow, but you will not be able to see the clip until you save the page and preview the site.
