Trouble opening videos
 
Can anyone tell me how to view the videos that we can download, I can't seem to open them using windows media player or quicktime. How do I get the Divex codec to work with either one them?

I always open them with the Divx Player. Right-click the link and choose 'Open with..' if you have that option.

- Download DivX ( http://www.divx.com/divx/index.php ). The version on the left
- install it
- restart windows
- watch the videos with windows media player

Can't Open videos either
 
Has something changed on the site? I downloaded all the videos the first week the site was up never had any problems. (I'm on a Mac using internet Explorer) have the latest Divx etc. It says it doesnt know how to handle the files, and adds the extension .pl
Can anyone help me? I feel pretty stupid that something I was doing with no prolblems a week ago I can't seem to figure out...

yes, just rename them to zip!

Dave had to write a download script do to some bandwith and server issues.
