Just did it here, on Mac  10.4.9 (G4 Powerbook), WiFi.

1st time (player named "Tutorial") I got spinning deathball and no video. (forced quit to get out of it).
2nd time (didn't name player, referenced "player 1"), all was fine
3rd time (player named "Tutorial") all was fine.

Best,

Mark

I just replicated the bug and have a rock solid recipe.

Challenge: get this movie to play in a revolution player stack *over Wi-Fi*

http://www.himalayanacademy.com/resources/lexicon/ Lexicon_Workshop_Tutorial.mov

-------------
recipe to date (experienced both on Windows and Mac)

Connection to internet: direct, hard-wired, ethernet to cable modem
a) play above URL in Firefox: runs fine
b) create rev stack,  1 player "tutorial: 1 btn, script:
on mouseUp
set the filename of player "tutorial" to "http:// www.himalayanacademy.com/resources/lexicon/ Lexicon_Workshop_Tutorial.mov"
  start player "tutorial"
end mouseUp

both work fine.

Disconnect: go to wi-fi (airport... I've got a full VPN connection to a box just 8 feet away)

a) play same mov-url in Firefox.... runs fine
b) try in Revolution... crazy stuff happens. but it doesn't play.

Can you get it to work in a Rev Player in *any and all * connection contexts?
