Do you guys have your PD/GE videos available in anything other than a wmv file? I'm having problems opening the videos on my computer and would greatly appreciate it if I could just see them on a simple mpg or something.

No.

Well, yes actually, but most aren't. Cervone has some of his vids in different formats, I think, and lots of older vids aren't wmv. Check around on aim.

oh dude... I just read your whole "tribute to frigate" page, and I must say that that was some funny ass @#%$! I was never a speed-timer myself, but I've played Goldeneye a ton of times and Frigate was one of my favorite levels just to got through regularly to shoot the breeze, but God damn, I recognized all the parts in there where you mentioned how godawfully gay frigate was, and I could totally see all those things coming into play while going for the cheat. Excellent piece of writing there. Excellent venting. Superb rant. You sir, are my smartass idol! (ok well not really, but yaknow... it was admirable

) By the way, did you actually get yourSELF on video while playing the game, or did you just record the video alone through the VCR or something?

He found a way to get his hand inside the TV, and taped it.

We usually tape while being hooked to the vcr. Not on video camera. Wmvs shouldnt be a problem to open though, get the most recent version of wmp

I thought I had the latest version and figured that maybe my mac was screwy. Anybody have a link to the place where I can download the wmp?

There are many Elite vids in different formats other than wmv, but they're not likely to be hosted anywhere at the moment. You can get them from people on AIM through GetFile (use the AIM listing or come in the chatroom and ask), but most of the fastest vids/WRs are in .wmv simply because there aren't that many WR holders, and those that make vids tend to use .wmv.

Make sure all your codecs are up to date. I'm not sure exactly how you run things on a Mac though, but you should be able to find the latest version of Windows Media Player floating around microsoft.com or download.com

I don't like the latest WMP... I use version 9.0. But here's a download page that will give you options, any one of these ought to work.

oldversion.com/program.php?n=wmp

Also, look here for more downloading options.

Most are still wmv, but there are a few mpgs and avis as well (avis might not help though... you better get the latest Divx player)

My computer doesn't like those links on that first one. Everytime I try to click one version of 9.0, my internet quits on me and has a sign that says it doesn't know how to handle the file.
