Hi Paul, I am using Windows andd I use a Mac on the road. I can
not open
the links to the videos using the windows computer. All it does
is show
source code. I havent tried on the MAC yet but for the windows
viewers
could you look into it?


You have to download the files to your computer to view the videos.
Video player programs are a mess with at least half a dozen
different formats.
We tested them with XP. Without XP and DSL or a cable modem all
bets are off.

I use Firefox on my XP machine, but had no problem just clicking on
the links on Paul's website...Firefox downloaded them and then
opens them in Windows Media Player. They played fine.

Sent the link to a friend of mine in Pittsburgh, and my son at
Unisys (both use XP with Internet Explorer), and they both had no
problems either...viewed them right from the website.

Doug, there's probably a setting in your browser, or something
similar, so that it can be viewed directly.

Thanks Harley, I will look for it. Doug


On my Mac the videos open in Windows Media Player.  I think they are
WMP files.
