Connie,

I think Karlen patted Frid's behind at one time.  Was that in 1897?  Yeah, Carl and Barnabas-- that could be it.

Maybe there's something different about my RealPlayer or IE plug-in settings. But I don't honestly know what that might be...

MB, neither do I, and I looked at everything I could think to check.  It may have to go down as one of life's little mysteries.

I wasn't sure if the clips for Newbies and Guests were the same as the others or not.

Guests and Newbies see a 160X120 video, otherwise it's the same as your group's first file.  This is mentioned in the Calendar board announcements for each video series.

While they can't see "ours," I assumed we could see "theirs."

Yes, only membergroup eligible posts display.  To see what I mean, view the video board when you're logged out.  And yes, you can watch the vids in any of the posts that display for you; however, except as noted above, you won't find anything there that isn't in the posts specific to your membergroup.

A "little" Real Player came up and that was all.  It was the way Vlad described it, no bar underneath to indicate that it was connecting.

A smaller RP screen will display for the 160X120 vids, btw.

I don't know if it's the same one you tried, but I see that one of the newbies/guest vids doesn't play and needs to be fixed.  In the meantime, should anyone need to report that a video link isn't working, please don't hesitate to message MB, dom, or myself with the specifics (which video and membergroup); guests can drop us a line by clicking on the email link in posts for any administrator.

I was wondering if that could be his problem, that he was trying to view one he doesn't have access to, however, I see that he's also a Senior member, so presumably that's not the problem.

Not presumably; it's definitely not an issue for Vlad.

Thanks, MB!

Well, he also "freezes" well, should Angelique ever go that route.

On top of the fire truck... whoa.

Get the latest free version of RealPlayer here.

LOL, stefan.

I don't know which videos you're trying to play, but if it helps, to play the Karen Sisco videos you need RP version 10.0.  But that's not the case for the CSI and Tru Calling clips.

once it starts, it stops from time to time, says "communicating" (I think that was it) again and once again works its way up until it starts playing again.

I have no idea if DSL or cable connections work better.

Have DSL.  Don't experience any stopping and starting with the vids.

Off-hand I don't recall a second.

The nurse who prevented Nicholas from visiting Tom in the hospital.  She was played by Beverly (Hope) Atkinson and the character was in a recent montage.
