Default Boeing 747 & 777 autoland in crosswind certification video - impressive!

In fact, this is such a common problem, that I've created this page:

Jay, the problem with your QuickTime movies is definitely at the serer
(i.e. your) side. I'm working on a Mac (i.e. no wincrap player) and watch
streamed ("one-click", as you call it) QuickTime movies pretty often from
within many different browsers and standalone players. This has always
worked without any glitch, except from your site.


Interesting. Jav Henderson (of this very newsgroup) provides hosting
services for our website -- so perhaps he can shed light on this problem?

To be honest, I've had so many problems with Quicktime lately that I've
pretty much dumped it, and reverted to RealPlayer.

But don't think I'm against Quicktime. About a year ago, I got so
frustrated with RealPlayer trying to "hijack" my system (and everyone
else's) that I completely removed it from my computer. It's good to see
that the latest version of RP no longer "holds" parts of your system (like
it used to) when you try to make (for example) Windows Media Player your
default video player. That REALLY ****ed me off, and caused video playback
to fail in whatever player you used.

I'm sure whatever screwed up Quicktime's quirks will be addressed and fixed
soon -- probably at the expense of one of the other video players...
