I have WMP 7.1, and a broadband internet connection, yet trying to watch the videos is pissing me off.
Everytime I click on one of the videos to watch, everything just freezes, then plays, then freezes again, over and over. I have no problem playing the audio clips, those load great. But, it's the video clips that are killing me, especially since they're so high-quality. They border on professional.
What the hell is wrong???

Does the video ever finish loading? Or does your computer just freeze? Have you tried the 251 KBPS ones to see if they work?

Vince, how fast is your computer? How much memory do you have? Also, which videos are you trying to view that are freezing up on you?
Thanks!

i'm having the same problem as the other vince ... actually what is happening is the DL link is not working, the immediate view links are working at their correct speeds, but when clicking the DL link, it won't DL, it just tries to play instantly as well.

Vegas Vince - Right click the download link to bring up the "Save As" prompt, and then save it to your computer. Don't left click it if you want to download it.

Thanks!
In the current world of computers, it's considered a dinosaur, but I have very little programs loaded, if any.
I'm running WinXP, 400MHz, 256 MB RAM, AMD-K6 3D Processor.
I've tried loading other video clips to watch, miscellaneous stuff, and they all run great. With the AP vids, though, it continues to load while I'm trying to watch the video, and I get intermittent audio coupled in with the video. Everything is done in a jerky-type of motion.
I'll try what Brett suggested. Right-clicking and "Save As", then opening it up that way.
Thanks, guys!
