Quicktime File Sharing with Web Publishing

I'm putting a webserver together of video clips (4Tb worth). To help the user navigate through them a bit easier I want to use FM as the web front end, but I've come up against a problem. I don't want to embed the QT files else the database will be immense and probably really slow, so I've been inserting them as references. Everything is works OK, but the links don't show up on the browser.

I know this is sounding like it's in the wrong forum topic, but the correct one doesn't seem to attract much traffic, so I'm having to try other solutions myself. Does anyone know how to set the container up so that when the user clicks on it, they are given the option to download the linked file rather than view it? I'm hoping that maybe it will translate differently into the web interface.

Thanks
