Too slow a download on Firefox (it appears to me to be about a six-eight minute download).
Inconsistent browser support for new variations of HTML has always been an issue. It's just that we haven't had a true new variety for a long time. So now it's like welcome back to the future, or welcome back to problems, problems, problems. Same old, same old. HTH, Marnie aka Doe :-) In a message dated 1/3/2013 4:58:15 A.M.

I know I'm a n00b at this, but does it really need to be this hard? Any suggestions will be gratefully accepted. * Chrome works fine, even with just the basic video tag. Chrome also seems to stream much better than IE or FF, which are really stuttery to play. I have the preload option on. * IE worked eventually after adding a few meta cryptic tags and re-encoding in H.264. Unfortunately, my slideshow maker (ProShow Producer) squirts out video in xvid codec. So I had to re-encode it. * Firefox was disappointing. No H.264 support out of the box; had to install the WMP plugin to get it to work. There seems to be a workaround to double encode in OGG which I'd do that if I had the space. * Can't test Safari or Opera, so I hope this works. Does anyone know how to tweak the 'control' option to have full-screen available on IE and Firefox? Only seems to be available for Chrome. Its a 1080 file, so it's a shame it can't be viewed that way. On a side note, I thought I'd kill two tech birds with one stone. Adorama gave me 20GB with Pogoplug for free, for life. I tried uploading the video file to save room on my personal sitespace. But darn it crawls along with uploading, and not that great downloading either. Will do further investigations. Anyhoo, here is my first '5 vid http://members.iinet.net.au/~derbyc/13/01/intimate_show/index.html Oh, happy new year, everyone.
