Where Are The Videos Hiding
Several people have asked how to play the videos. We don’t use an embedded player since we need to conserve bandwidth and media player always downloads WMVs whether or not the play button was pressed. To play a video, click on the smallish photograph that follows the post in which the video is mentioned. Our movies are usually 320×240 so look for a picture of that size. I probably should put a frame around them or something; so it’s more obvious that it’s a link to a video. I rather find something similar to the Flash players that works with WMVs. IF anybody know of anything please let me know. BTW: I have considered just switching to Flash video; but the convenience is not worth the larger file size (and the corresponding increase in bandwidth.)
P.S. For a variety of reasons, we are not comfortable with external hosting solutions.
