I work in Macs so I used to post my videos ONLY in .mov But, now I post both in .mov and .wmv It just happens that in Colombia were our families are, the computers don't have quicktime installed. (My brother who is a computer geek obviously has quicktime, but a normal person who just buys a PC and never installs anything, he doesn't have it). So, for example my wife's mother: she doesn't have a computer at home, so she has to go to an Internet Cafe to see the videos. I was on the phone telling her how to get to my vlog and see the videos, and she couldn't see them! The computer doesn't have quicktime installed, I even spoke with the person in charge of that place and told him to install it, but he told me that he wasn't allowed to isntall any softwares....... Huh??? Anyway, I finally had to start posting the videos in windows media, this way she can see them with out problems. So it all depends in what people are going to see your videos. Obviously if you post in .wmv too the risk of people encountering problems is minimum, so more people will be able to watch them Juan http://livingwithfallas.myblogsite.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
