Can't see the instructional videos on shockwave flash

Post by tylerzambori »

That seems to be the only way. I downloaded adobe
shockwave, tried to install it, and when I run the video,
a browser opens with the viewer, but it does not run any video.

Why couldn't they just do a regular .avi or .wmv file?
That would have been a lot better.

What did the rest of you do to view these videos?

Which instructional videos are you talking about the ones from the manual are .wmv....
But have you tried using the VLC player it plays next to everything.
Its sort of a swiss army knife for videoclips..

well I meant the instructional video courses that are now free. I thought
I would start with "intro to widgets" so I could design my own maybe.....
and it looks like shockwave flash is my only real option.

But this seems hard to work with, or even get it installed. It
doesn't play in any browser.

The videos that install into the manual are easy as pie.

Correction:

It seems to work fine on Windows 7 RC1 in Internet Explorer.
Just not in XP. Arrgh, I'm looking forward to installing
windows 7 and being done with it.
