OK, problem solved for the .mov files. I'd forgotten you'd be playing them outside of the website environment, but some find Quicktime Alternative good when encountering .mov files within websites, though there is a hack around for getting to .mov streams to defeat embedding. Belive that's somewhere in the GW Micro Blogg.
I think though Caroline you could do worse than ask the Beeb about this, even if the form you go through is a long winded process. Come back to us though if and when you do make rogress.

I think there was some reference to playing files directly from the internet in the documentation I read about it, but this isn't what I wanted to do anyway so I didn't look into that too closely. So far so good though, although one day I do hope I'll have the patience to find out why the WMV files failed so miserably for me. Caroline.
