It would play properly for me. :frown:

I could hear the sound and get a selection of different frames though, so I guess I can imagine what happened.:blink:

That worked thanks.

Does anyone ever watch the Discovery Channel program with Ryan Stock, "The Human Guinea Pig"? (Idiot/mad/no sense=no feeling)

The other week I watched him trying kite-flying and he lifted off from a beach, landing in shallow water, and broke a bone in his foot! Undeterred he carried on with the filming. Plonker! :p
