Version 928 and Video

[rnaleonard]

Hi James,

Looks like Firefox works.  But when using both Firefox and Safari I see this error message in the XTension log when I click the Archive button:

XTRemote: movie player error 100

In Firefox the movies play in both the archive player window and in the download window.  In Safari, the play shell appears in both windows and the word "Loading" appears.  But when I click the triangle or play button, nothing plays and "Loading" disappears.

The movies are about 10 seconds in length.  Size is around 9-10 m

When I start a capture I see these messages in the log:
	In set up movie
	QT flatten

I know I'm close ...

Rich

If that works then the movie is actually loaded and ready but something else is keeping it from displaying, if that doesn’t work then we’re not loading the movie for some reason. Can you tell how large the movie is from the display by the download link? There may be a size above which we hit some kind of error on loading.
