September 11th
 

Forgive me for grabbing space on this board. If the moderators want to close the thread that's no problem - it will not use any extra bandwidth....just leave it "clickable".

If you have the time, the willpower and a good video streaming connection on your computer - turn down the lights, turn up the sound and watch this movie.

The running time is just under eight minutes.

Thanks for that, well put together video.

Thanks GoneWest.

Just downloaded it. Excellent video.

Took quite awhile to download, even with cable, but worth it. The only downside? When I first heard Enya's song "Only Time" I loved it so much - I have a few of her other CD's as well - I bought it right away. Then, an American produced show about New York Firefighters and Paramedics played it on a show where a bunch of teenagers were killed in a car crash during prom (I'm the mother of a teenager so it kinda hit home.)

I recently watched another Sept. 11 vidio on the net done by a Colledge in LA, they used the same song, now when I hear it, all I think about is death!

I wonder how Enya is taking all this? It's more of a love song, mostly suited to weddings or people who just love to hear a beautiful voice. Now an anthem for Sept. 11?

I'm probably being very stupid, but here goes anyway .....

I downloaded the file, and some 'decompress code'(?) programme it offered me, but the video won't play except in short 1-2 second bursts, and then stops while it's "buffering".

I'm using Intel Pentium P4, 256 MB Ram and (from memory) a Geoforce(?) video card.

Any ideas from the boffins?

Heliport: I'm guessing but I think that the video is playing quicker than your Internet connection can supply the video. What I would do is press "Stop", and wait for the progress bar to increase then press play.

I've just right clicked, done "Save to disk" and written it to my hard drive.

Thanks, W_D_T_B_D.
Works fine when saved to the hard drive.
