I just tried downloading a few vids.....the Ben Doyle lesson #1 vid and a couple others.
My browser (which is FIREFOX, BTW) went to a page with a bunch of random numbers and letters on it....
Anyone else having problems?
Birdie, I'm also having these problems in firefox (but not Internet Explorer). We just upgraded the server, and it looks like there's a small problem with the videos in firefox. I'm looking into the problem now.
Witht he newest video additions(Ben Doyle S3 and Yoda/VJ), I'm getting slow download times and an error message about half way thru the video.

C00D11C0: Cannot play the file
Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network problem occurred. You might encounter this error message for one of the following reasons:
Your computer is not connected to the local area network (LAN) or Internet. Connect to the network or Internet, and then try again.
The path to the file is not valid. If you typed a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) address in the Open URL dialog box, verify that the file name is spelled correctly and that the path to the file is correct, and then try again. If you clicked a link on a Web page, the link might not be valid.
The server is not available (for example, the server is busy or not online). Try again later.
Some network protocols in the Player are not enabled. Enable all network protocols, and then try again.
The proxy server settings for the Player are not configured properly. Verify that your proxy settings are correct, and then try again.
To enable all network protocols
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Network tab.
In the Streaming protocols area, select all the protocol check boxes.
To verify your proxy server settings
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Network tab.
Verify your settings in the Streaming proxy settings area.
Notes
If you do not know what your proxy server settings should be, on the Network tab, select a protocol, click Configure, and then select Autodetect proxy settings or Use proxy settings of the Web browser (available for HTTP protocol only).
If you are connected to the Internet through a dial-up connection, you might not be able to choose the proxy server. For more information, consult with your Internet service provider (ISP) or network administrator.
Error ID = 0xC00D11C0, Condition ID = 0x00000000
Web Help
These are all big files. You are probably experiencing network timeout problems due to server load or a slow internet connection. I suggest you try and download the file by right clicking on the link or gallery icon, and saving the file to your local disk rather than streaming the videos. Let me know if that worked for you.
I know it isn't a slow internet connection. I'm one step below a T1 at the office and home. All the other files work fine except these new ones.
I'd save them to disk, but when I'm at home, when I right click on the link, "Save target as" is not highlighted. (You wouldn't know how to fix that, would you!)
It works that way at work, but not at home - WinXP Pro at both places.

Wolfman,
Are you running any sort of firewall, internet security, or popup blocker software at home that you aren't using at work?
A firewall on your router wouldn't disable the "save target as" link. Some firewall/security systems that reside on your PC are a bit more intrusive (ie. Norton Internet Security). If you have firefox, I'd be interested to know if you're able to download from that browser.
