gallery problems

[armourall]

Yes, and it seems I was able to get videos from this site, just not when they're posted in the Gallery. I downloaded the Tomasello Australia series a while ago before it was posted in the Gallery (may have been a link in a post), but if I try to open it now in the Gallery, I can't. Can you possibly post a link to one of the Tomasello Letter series so I can test?

I am also having trouble viewing the videos. I tried streaming them and when that wasn't working, right-clicking and downloading them. Once downloaded, I could only watch about a minute of the video before I got an error message. Any ideas? Thanks.

armourall, I must have missed your post...sorry about that. Here's a direct link to one of the Tomasellos videos.

Lefty, what's the error message you're getting when you download and play the videos?

Ben, I still get the same problem with the direct link. Thanks for trying.

BamBam - I am getting the message "C00D1199: Cannot play the file". I googled it and it has something to do with the codec. The weird thing is that I can watch the first minute of each video before getting the error. Any ideas?

So I found a solution. After researching the issue, I found instructions to play it on your Media player 6.2 which is installed in all windows systems. To access it, go to your start button and then to Run. At run type in mplayer2.exe That should be able to handle all of the videos on the forum.

I've downloaded and viewed all of the previous videos without any problems but I cannot get the 2 new Brian Gay ones to work. Both of them stop after exactly 1 minute of viewing and I get the error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because it is corrupted".

I have tried with Media Player 10 and Media Player 6.4 but to no avail. I have the correct codecs installed (both of these clips are (WMV3 = Windows Media Video 9, 33 Mb, 701 Kbps, 11.392 fps, res. 640*480 (4:3)).

The download sizes of the files are 5634Kb and 5328Kb is this correct?

Anyone else had this problem?

Have you tried using DivX AVI rather than WMV ?

Did you "save target as" and then play with media version 6.2? The issue that I am having is that when I "save target as", the saved WMV files are only around 5 MB. I can play the files but they are not full length.
