I want to put a video on my web site so i can just go to it on my iPhone and watch it. What media type would i use to watch the movie?

QuickTime.

Done that

I've done it. You have to use a Quicktime file in .m4v format. I have several full length movies on my website in that format and they load perfectly. Don't use .mov format. The files have a 10 Mb limit.

So like i can take the family guy box set and put a dvd in the computer and then convert the episodes to .m4v and then upload to my site and watch them?

Pretty much. Has to be QT format for iPhone to play it.

If you use "export to iPod or iTunes" inQuicktime, it will automatically get it to the right size, usually something like 320x240.

But you can get Quicktime Pro for PC (downloadable from Apple). At $29, it's a good investment for anybody with an iPhone or iPod (especially if you have avi files, which won't play on iPhone). If you need a program to rip DVD's, then I don't know what PC users do.
