I have a bunch of videos that I'm am storing in a MySql database (if another database or programming language would be better please let me know) and using php to grab them and display them on a webpage. As far as I can see the best and most efficient way to store the videos is in a file on the server and then putting the location of the videos in the database. I know how to query the database to get the location, I was just wondering how I take the location and use that to format and display the video on the webpage. I was thinking of using XML or SMIL.
Could someone give me some ideas of how to do this or any better ways of doing it.

This is how I would do it.

Write it with the name hard coded. Then replace the name with the value pulled from the database.
