Cant see new CIV videos :(

[GAZ082]

Yeah, i wanna stream them from Gamespot but when i click the video, the window that tells me what bandwith should i use closes in a blink. I allowed popups from the site and eveything, but does not work. I tried with my Firefox and also IE with identical results.

Any tip about this? Is there a way to have a direct link to the video?

get a free basic account and log in. then you can download the file.

Thats about it, if you dont have the bandwith for streaming not much else you can do other than change ISP's.

I have enough bandwidth, but get no picture, only sound...

[vStauffenberg]

try to select a different format (wmp, quicktime, ...)

Reinstall WMP10, that's what did it for me last time.

You know guys, sometimes all you need to do is complain. I haven't got this picture thing to work for 2-3 days now, but when I try once more after I posted here, it works again...

Haha, i used bugmenot.com firefox plugin to get a free account without the hassle of registering and now i can dl vids, crappy quiality, but vids at the end.

I get the picture and the sound, but the picture is so very small. Is anybody viewing these videos on the full screen?
What do you need to view these things full screen?

Am I the only one who thinks those videos are too big?

I mean 11 MB for 1 minute, give me a break.

Hmmm. you can watch it for 30 sec, then hit pause, wait, do some stretching, eat a snack and drink, then restart and see the whole 30" left... is it enough for a break?

Seriusly, maybe they chose a bad codec, but movies with enough frame change are quite a beast to compress keeping a high framerate.
