Displaying video on websites

Asked by WingYip in Web Graphics Software, Macromedia Flash, Programming for ASP.NET

I am about to start a web proejct that will include pages that have embedded video.  I know nothign about this and have a few general questions that I hope somebody can set me straight on:

The server will be a Microsoft IIS server and the development language is Asp.Net

1. to serve video from a webpage are there any requirements on the server software side
2. Which video format is the most universal?
3. I am seeing a lot of flash video.  Is extra software requried for program with flash video.  Are there players avaialable that can be used out of the tin as it were?  Can all video formats be played through Flash?
4. Where do I get the tools that will allow me to display a video on a page?

Can't find the perfect EE zone for this so have posted here.
