How to play quicktime .mov files on iphone

I would like to be able to play quicktime (.mov) files on my iphone4s but I get a message that my file cannot be played on this iphone.

I created the file in keynote, exported it to a quicktime movie with the manual advance option.

My goal is to be able to use iphone to connect to a projector with a iphone to vga adapter and thus project my presentations from the iphone.

But I cannot import import it using itunes to the iphone.

Wondering if there is an app that plays quick time movies or some other option.

The reason I cannot export from keynote is that it does not give the option for manual advance.

It only provides a fixed time option.

Appreciate any help

thank you
