Although there *are* other opinions:
"President Grover Cleveland signed a law designating the first Monday
in September as Labor Day nationwide. This is interesting because
Cleveland was not a labor union supporter. In fact, he was trying to
repair some political damage that he suffered earlier that year when
he sent federal troops to put down a strike by the American Railway
Union at the Pullman Co. in Chicago, IL. That action resulted in the
deaths of 34 workers."

Pierre,
Labor Day is a national holiday in the US to celebrate working 
Americans.  It traditionally marks the end of the summer, just as 
Memorial Day--late in May-- (remembering all those who died in the 
service of our country) marks the start of summer.

Quoting from the department of Labor website   
http://www.dol.gov/opa/aboutdol/laborday.htm   :

"Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor 
movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of 
American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the 
contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and 
well-being of our country."

We're a bit behind the times here in the US. While the rest of the
world celebrates labor on the first of May, we wait until the first
Monday until September because of the "unpleasant" connections of
Mayday with... er... labor. Although if I remember correctly, Maggie
Thatcher also tried to move the UK off the standard and substitute a
holiday for the Queen Mum's birthday.

I've gotten so used to the "save to disk" feature of QTPro that I tend
to forget that the normal QT version doesn't normally support it. If
the QT browser plugin is configured for it, though, you can also find
QT videos in the browser cache directory.

Hi all. And a happy Labor Day to those of you in the US!
Does anyone know of a way to save the videos to disk for viewing at 
times when one doesn't have an internet connection?

I took a long trip this past weekend and was planning on working with 
Rev, in particular doing the things I don't seem to have time for 
during the week--chiefly watching the videos.  Then I realized I 
couldn't download them and did not have an internet connection in the 
air or at the airports I was passing through. Being able to download 
and watch again without re-downloading would be really helpful.

Thanks.

Re: Download videos?

2004-09-06 Thread Marian Petrides
Thanks, Jay.  That's where one finds the videos on OS X also.  And, in 
case anyone else is curious, they download as AVI files which play fine 
in QT player independent of Rev.

That is also the location to which the associate PDF file downloads (if 
you click on it to get it--the download is not automatically linked to 
viewing the video).

Or at least the videos could be streamed so that you wouldn't have to 
wait through the whole download to start viewing.

I'm told that QT movies with the "Quick Start" option set work well in 
players as they do in the browser, starting playback as soon as enough 
has been buffered, continuing the download as it goes.

One can also wrap any QT movies in a SMIL document for stream-like 
playback on any server.

Ideally there would be both: quick-start playback AND a local cache for 
immediate playback next time.
