Importing video question

hey all,
first off, id like to say thanks to pixelranger.com for solving one of my preloader problems!!!
my question is about importing video into flash…that is, what the best way to show a 30sec to 1 min movie clip??? the movie clip will most probably be in quicktime. Preferably id like the viewer to decide whether he/she wants to watch it or not so is there a way to embed the movie into flash, and create a player around it or should it just be link to open up an external quicktime/real media player sort of thing…
thanks guys as usual, this place saves my life!!!

much love
Pithcell
