Default "Pursuit of Flight" problem
Anyone but me having problems with the sound on the PoF video? I am getting a reverb so strong I can't understand the voiceover. Tried a few other videos and sources and have no problems with them. Ideas?

Yeah... Last night - first I only had audio - but no picture. I messed with it for a while... then realizing I did not have the latest quicktime version - downloaded 7.1something. Now I get nadda. Zippo... no sound... no picture.

Very bummed.

I DO get an error message that says that there is an error with a plug-in on the site... whatever the heck that means.

Any ideas from our I.T. wizards out there?

Well - maybe I'll have better luck on my office computer. So, hi-ho, hi-ho... etc. etc.

Thanks! DJ

Default Worked last night...
...from home.

Could be the site is getting hammered. It's a 48MB video file I'm told.

I had the same problem last night. It said a component of Quiktime was missing and unfortunately the proper plug-in is not available. Odd. I gave up.

I just tried it and it worked fine. Must be a Quicktime thing, I guess.

If it helps at all, my Quicktime
is version 7.0.4 and it works fine.
About a month ago, I had to
upgrade to this version to view
another video in quicktime.

I upgraded and still can't get it to work. I can hear the audio, but not see the video. Quicktime is the worst video player made by man.

Default Maybe try this
http://pursuitofflight.com/Resources/RV12%20Show_1.mov

If that doesn't work, then maybe convince the producer to also produce other format versions such as mpeg.

Yeah... that is the same error message I saw initially last night when I was receiving audio only. Now that I have upgraded to the latest Quicktime... I don't see or hear anything!

(It is however working here on my "work" computer... which has an older version of QT. Riddle me that one batman.)

Default Need 2 passes
Tried to view this last night and got only the video. Tried today on a laptop with the latest Quicktime download and got only audio. Maybe I just need to view side-by-side. Looks like a well-done production but it sure would be nice to see it all together.

UPDATE: Tried the alternate .mov link and it finally launched. Very cool vido. This ought to make a great series.
