I have some .mvi video files that I want to put on a web page.
How do I go about this.
I don't see them when I go to import an image.

Most video files played on a web page require additional plugins for those surfing the site. The safest bet is converting the files to FLVs, which Web Video Player works with. Are you sure the format is .mvi? That's a new one to me. Googling it only pulls up references to AutoCAD, unless they're files from a Canon camera that may have MVI in the filename (but are most likely in a more common format like AVI). Either way, I'm sure there's a way to convert them to a more suitable file.
This site has a code generator to help spit out the html code you need to add to your page to play a few different formats (WMV/Quicktime/Real Media).

Personally, I'd rather convert to FLV and and just use Web Video Player (easier to work with and much more compatible for everyone else viewing). http://www.flashstrap.com
