Yep, I just had the same thing with that thread on here with the video embedded in it. Crashed my IE twice so I said fuck it.

A few possible causes..
1) You dont have the right codecs installed to view the movies (not likely because it tries to download the right ones.. but it doesn't always find them) 2) Have you tried saving them to your hard drive first and then playing them? Does it only happen when you try to play it over the net or does it not work at all? 3) What version of mediaplayer is it? There are heaps of alternative movie viewing apps, just search google for a mpeg player, also I'm pretty certain that WMP isnt capable of playing .mov files they're specifically for Quicktime Hope that helps..

It takes about a full minute for each vid to load when I'm playing it off the net. Locally they're fine. I wish I could go back to version 8 but it wont let me ![]() |

if you have video editing software installed, specially programs for sonic foundry it messes up embeded videos when you try to view them.
Search to find 2 files called mcdsmpeg.ax and mcspmpeg.ax then change them to mcdsmpeg.old and mcspmpeg.old. That is what my problem was. |
