Can't argue with that-- though with the crappy standard set by the YouTube folks, one would have to say there's not much appreciation for high quality compression these days. Frankly, after *trying* to watch TV on the web, I'll take poor compression over the hiccups, stop and starts, and overall lack-of-robustness of the higher online compressed video anyday. Though one to look out for is blip.tv. These guys have better compression than the YouTube and it's clones. Course, QuickTime has it all over WMV's as far as playback control is concerned. Try advancing 'just one frame' using the standard WMP controls. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
