I can't even save it with "Save Flash", I get the same error image I mentioned above. ACA Capture Pro will save it (194k in this case).
After it's on the HD by either method, QuickTime always says it can't open because of "invalid media data". WMP opens it but only displays a custom proprietary looking (I think), "ERROR" and a crying face! It's like an animated IMAGE OF, a media player INSIDE the media player's frame! http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=685039303 -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com http://Computer-Hardware-Sales-Consumer-Electronics-Sales.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kaulback" Could you provide a link Clint? I've never come across a flash file I couldn't play locally. You may be seeing remote flash content which is a new(ish) server resource hog.
