3. How do i set up the html page and where do i upload it.(is this the embed code thats given in the wizard)

Upload:
mediaplayer.swf
swfobject.js (only if you are using the swfobject method of embedding)
HTML document
The most basic HTML page looks like this:<html>There are "Tutorials" at the top of this page and more information in the "Players" category.
<head>
...various elements, like title, etc. ...
if you are using swfobject.js, then load the external file
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
...the player code...
</body>
</html>

Can some elaborate a little on this ?

I'd be glad to elaborate on specific points; but first, did you read the tutorial Embedding Flash at the top of this page?
What specific points aren't clear?

I thought I made it clear what I needed to know......
I need to know what directories to put the files and step by step directions how to setup. After hours of looking I do not see anywhere where it shows you how to set this up on your website.
I'm using
Mac
blue host c-panel
wordpress
wordtube
Believe me I have wore Google out

I think this is the heart of your problem — from your two posts above:Can some elaborate a little on this ? and I thought I made it clear what I needed to know......

Installation
This section describes a very simple installation. The download ZIP contains all you need to get started. First, transfer the player.swf and swfobject.js file from the ZIP to your website.
These directions are not specific where to put the files...... They just say transfer to your site
Is there anyone that has a link to specific directions for installing the player?

I'm trying to take the code that is generated with the wizard and embed that into a wordpress template - video.php.
I don't even know if that's possible.

I got it to work
I did not use any code from Wizard
Referenced the movie stored in my wp-upload file in Media Center in assigned [MEDIA=1]
Then I set the options in Wordtube plugin
Then post [MEDIA=1] in the post
Movie shows in Blog
