Tracy can you tell us exactly what happens such as any errors you might get? It's impossible for us (webmasters) to test the videos for Mac users seeing that we only have PC's.

I pulled this directly from the Microsoft website regarding issues with the Mac OS and Windows Media Player, I hope this helps because we want ALL Punks fans to enjoy this site!

Link issues with Internet Explorer
If you are using Internet Explorer 4.01 or 4.5, you may experience problems opening links to some files. To fix this, upgrade your browser to Internet Explorer 5 or download the link to your computer, and then open it with the Player.

Note: If you install Internet Explorer 5 after you have installed the Player, you should run Windows Media Player Setup again. This will add the Windows Media plug-in to the browser so you can play Windows Media-based content that is embedded in Web pages.

I really hope this helps. In the meantime I'll continue to do more research until we get this taken care of.

Brett,

as you say, you can't test the videos on Mac since everybody has PCs. All the videos on the site work perfectly on the WMP version for Mac which is the latest one I have (and which you say must be played on WMP9 (for Mac is WMP 7.1). What happened when I dowloaded the new video was, I only got the audio portion - no image at all. No big deal, just thought I'd give other Mac users who are Punks fans a heads up.

The only error messages I've got on this site are "is not found at this server." This applies to the video with Michael Anthony on stage with the guys, and to the Ralph sounds like Dave bit on the audio section.

Don't worry about it, I'm more than used to things not working when it comes to WMP - I saw the guys Friday night, they were awesome as usual, so that made up for it in spades.

Thanks anyway,
Tracy
