Streaming Video via Root?

Hello,

I've been trying to use root locations for streaming movies... using the following:

Code:
<embed src="/home/gaminghy/media/videos/tgs2006/lostplanet_part1.mov" width="640" height="480" autostart="true" loop="false"></embed>
However, the source is right but it seems to not load. This could be because it will not go into the root folders and only to the /public_html/ files. I'm trying ot offer this option to my visitors as a way to stream videos while protecting the files from download/hotlinking. I can make it so they can download the file, but I can't seem to have it allow streaming via <embed>.

Any ideas? Thank you!
