It appears that most of the popular public video sites are using Flash movie format. I find this interesting. When I visit a site that doesn't use Flash, my Web browser (Firefox on Mac) often has trouble displaying the movies. But those that use Flash play perfectly every time. Maybe that's the reason.

They come out as flv video files, so that's apparently where Google is heading re video. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
