From: Konrad Dear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: real player isn't smiling hello im writing an smil presentation, and I have a problem with id's. my presentation is set out as follows: <seq> <par id="seaside"> <anchor id="Vacation"/> ... </par> <par id="shark"> ... </par> <par id="hospital"> ... </par> ... as you can see i want to access the first clip by 2 id's, as the first clip in the group - vacation, and as a clip on its own - seaside. now for the first few groups this is ok, but as soon as i hit the 4th group, real player locks up. the first clip of the 4th group plays, but if i go to play a different clip and then come back to replay the original clip, real player locks up. the only thing i can come up, is either im implementing this wrong, ie. that anchor tag, or the player wasn't designed to do something like this. the reason i've gone to all this trouble of trying to implement 2 id's for a clip, is to give the user a more informative visual cue in the status bar, when they pass their mouse over a link. and there are 2 ways for users to arrive at particular clips. another thing is that this is quite a large .smil file, its about 27k now, and will probably get a lot larger as i keep updating it. i dont want to have to split it up if i can help it. if anyone can shed some light on the subject, or have solved a similar problem to this, i'd really appreciate hearing from them. thankyou konrad
