    Read here if you have problems viewing the interview with Windows Media Player

    Howard,

    I don't know who did the conversion, but they weren't use the right stuff for the current WMP. I went and downloaded the latest media codec pack from MS, and the only thing it update was the MPEG4 which doesn't apply here since the clip is in WMP v8 format for video and audio.

    Just out of curiousity, I downloaded the Windows Media Player 9 Release Candidate and guess what... it plays perfectly. So if people are having problems with the current version, trying going to Microsoft and downloading this version of WMP.

    Otherwise, people are going to be stuck if they don't want to use a beta version of the player. I'm not sure if its something with the codecs or the player though.

    Best,

    Meh... just use mplayer (www.mplayerhq.hu).



    (note: this is meant to be facetious, in case someone fails to get it -- AFAIK, mplayer doesn't have Win binaries available, as it is written for Linux. However, it is true that it does play this clip just wonderfully. nah nah-nah nah nah nah... )
