I did get it to load a clip, once, and actually play it, but never could get it to load the next one in the sequence. So I can't say I've not seen it work again. That nominally 5 seconds played, both video and audio normally. Its like the filter line, when cleared, still contains some invisible character that never matches. Whats a good drag & drop file manager?, maybe that would work. mc, my usual file manager, isn't drag & drop. Dolphin maybe? I might try that after I get some coffee inside me. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
