Strange.
=========
I am running QT 7.3.1. QuickTime download website now says for
Vista or better. [so I installed Ubuntu 7.10 Linux but that's
another thread ...]

If you are a "cheap screw" [like me] and don't want to have to
replace your printer/scanner, etc. by upgrading to vista, then

I don't consider Vista an upgrade, Unk.


check out another mp4 player. Try one of these, much smaller [
1 meg] so should be downloadable even with POTS.

also google on mp4 player download for 658k hits.
I haven't tried any of these, and be sure and check for viruses
before installing.

I have a DIVX player but the MP4 file wasn't available for download
via that original link.


You also might install

on

Done.

Foxfire for me also when I tried to access.

It still does with the above addon installed. sigh


home page is http://www.iop.harvard.edu/
http://www.iop.harvard.edu/iop_feed.xml takes you to along
listing -- go about 1/3 down and click on the underlined blue
"No End In Sight" The American Occupation of Iraq
link indicates
http://iopforum.harvard.edu/mp3/fr20070913noend.mp3

That works, audio only, with the installed QT. Thanks.


with an ipv4 of 128.103.190.44 apparently has audio only
but Miro saved file has an mp4 extension and plays both video and
audio using Windows and Linux players. -- strange.

Using Miro on the Linux side of the box I get
http://iopforum.harvard.edu/mp4/fr20070913noend.mp4
as an address with the correct mp4 extensions. Try opening
QuickTime and then file /open file. This seems to work for me.

This brings up QT and it appears to be downloading the file before
playing it. (4 mins later, 3/4 done? We'll see...6 mins, still 3/4)


I find that Real Player v10.5 under w2k will download the file.

NOGO under XP.


Anyone else having problems?
