Use the multimedia macro that comes with Answers
Testing within ITS found that using mp3, mp4, and mov files with the Macromedia macro did work not consistently in different browsers. The macro worked best using Flash videos with the autoplay box checked. If you don't want the flash video to autoplay when the page is opened, then make the first page of your video a page that the user has to click to start the video.
