From: troisieme on 19 Dec 2008 11:58 I made an error in reporting that last experiment with my vista machine. The piece loaded but not the movie, which I reported before. However, the movie did download to the folder with the webplr07.exe file. All the more problematical - why would the piece load but not the movie when the movie is in the same folder as the player? The amin0000.aas file is in the Temporary Internet Files folder, along with a copy of the aam file, the htm file, and the aminac.mov file.

Do you have the 2004 web player installed on Vista?
From: deuxieme on 19 Dec 2008 15:46 I do have the 2004 web player installed on my vista machine.
From: gantek on 19 Dec 2008 16:30 In your code, how are you indicating the path to the MOV? Are you using the browse button in the Quicktime sprite? Or are you using a function call in a calc? Steve Gannon GanTek Multimedia
