Hello,

Lunar Pages is my webhost and ftp provider. I wanted to link a 75,000 KB mpg4 video to my website. It would be impossible to download from the website. Is it possible to script the link so it plays the mpg4 (or other format) on the Lunar Pages ftp site and is streamed to the viewer?

What are my options?

Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.

Well, the main problem you would run into is people could only stream it and watch it as quickly as their internet connection would allow.  If it were me, I'd consider shrinking down the filesize more (as much as you could) before uploading.
