Had issues using the code in the answer provided by  haynar above  wouldn t play on Chrome   and it seems that one of the more modern ways to ensure it plays is to use the video tag  Example    lt video controls  controls  width  800  height  600          name  Video Name  src  http   www myserver com myvideo mov  gt  lt  video gt    This worked like a champ for my  mov file  generated from Keynote  in both Safari and Chrome  and is listed as supported in most modern browsers  The video tag is supported in Internet Explorer 9   Firefox  Opera  Chrome  and Safari    Note   Will work in IE   etc   if you use MP4  Mov is not officially supported by those guys
