Hey Jim
Earlier Pat Cook posted re a site http://www.vidilife.com/ where they
talk about divx being the missing ingredient if the videos on their
site don't play.
What's the deal, why is divx such a pain to use and why can't all of
this be made easier for the average user.
Why does it have to be so difficult, is it the vidilife peeps or the
browser peeps making life complicated? i think I have the darn stuff
downloaded and it's not working. Or is it a MS issue?
I've got to believe there is an easier way to make video work for the
masses. Is there something we all can do to make it easier, short of
downloading a client that also downloads the divx bits?
This is not urgent by any means, however I think it's important for the
long haul. When you have a minute I'd like to hear your thoughts when
you're back in the office. It's 2006 and we're still making users fuss
too much, IMO.
