The norm would be to encode it to .flv (Flash Format) and serve it up through a Flash Video Player. You can find some free one's if you google. To do the encoding you can use an opensource project called FFMPEG. They don't release compiled versions, only source code snapshots, so you're better off searching for a asp.net library that is based on FFMPEG. Check out this website (http://www.mediasoftpro.com/)....I haven't used this product, but it gives you the idea.

I've got a friend who is looking to place a 30 - 45 minute presentation that is stored in a windows media player file extenstion (.WMV). He would like this placed on a website for users to click and play. Can this be down without having to download the file? He would like it to just play from inside the website without downloading the file. Any ideas? Is this possible? Also, if the file has to be converted to a different format, does anyone know some good software to accomplish this?
