I'll try to find a better link when I have some time. > Mike The RapidShare wait time is more like 5 or ten minutes, just enough time for a cup of coffee. The 100MB files take about 13 minutes to download on DSL, so you can download the entire series in the background while working on something else. The result is well worth the effort. This is the Messenger Series of lectures at Cornell. It was standing room only. Feynman is an amazing speaker, and the avi files mean you can move them to a different operating system when you decide to move to Ubuntu later:) After downloading, rename the files to avi.001, avi.002, etc., and save the following in a batch file in the same folder as the avi files: @echo off cls echo. echo Concatenating files. This takes a minute or so... echo. copy /b avi.001+avi.002+avi.003+avi.004+avi.005+avi.006+avi.007 physlaw.avi echo. echo Done. The /b option means to copy in binary format. An end-of-file mark is not placed at the end of the copied file. This creates a 664MB avi file. If you don't have an AVI viewer, VLC is very effective for large files like this: http://www.videolan.org/ The entire file takes 56 minutes to view. VLC allows you to start anywhere in the file by moving the cursor, so you can keep track of where you stopped and return to that point later. This allows you to watch the entire performance without interruption, or return to any part that interests you. When you have verified the file is good, remember to erase the originals to save disk space. The Feynman lectures are very interesting, and give you a chance to hold a part of history. They are well worth the effort to download and keep.
