Hi, Daniel!

I think, browser has some restrictions in accessing local files.
Try to use protocol-style URLs:

file:///C:/dir_1/test.txt

But if you run TiddlyWiki from another Local Drive or Node.js, Node-Webkit
read about CORS-restrictions.

Also, you can make your files reachable via HTTP, FTP-protocols.
In this case, you need to setup local HTTP or FTP-server.

For example, i play with local CouchDB-server now.

There will be some delay for downloading video file from the local drive to 
the local tmp directory and opening it...

I think, using Node-WebKit as GUI and TiddlyWiki for Node.js provides many 
useful 
features,
but it needs more and more additional setups.

So, i have the same problem


Thanks
