No problems here. Running at 1.5mbps

Make sure you right-click and select "save as...". For the benefit of all, it's always better to save than stream.

I can handle losing against an M3 CSL, especially when it beats the RX8 (which someone else in the office picks up on Monday )

Serves you right for letting Quicktime mangle your file associations. This is a DivX 5 encoded AVI file which should really be opened with Windows Media Player for best results.

DivX codec can be downloaded here:
http://download.divx.com/divx/DivX511Bundle.exe

Once installed, try right-clicking the file and select "open with" -> "Windows Media Player" (in Windows XP).

Programs that steal file associations suck big time! This includes both Quicktime and Real player, both of which are installed with great care on my PC to ensure they don't screw up other applications. Be warned!
