[CAUT] Birkett videos online

[Paul Milesi, RPT]

Richard:

I¹m running a Mac PB G4 and Safari.  I just downloaded and checked out the
Birkett videos earlier today.

To download the file, hold down Control and then click on the video
(download link).  You¹ll get a contextual menu and one of the options will
be ³Download linked file to disk.²  Once the file is downloaded (by default,
to your desktop), and you¹ve also downloaded Mplayer (I put its folder in my
Applications folder, and then added the MPlayer application¹s icon to my
dock by dragging it there), simply drag the Birkett file over the Mplayer
application icon and the file will open and play.

Feel free to contact me if you have questions.

Paul

I have an iBook G4 so I downloaded the MPlayer software but the pictures and
the software aren't finding each other.  If I click on the picture, the
default tries to run QuickTime.  I copied the url into the new MPlayer
software, but that didn't work either. Do I have to change some settings to
avoid the QuickTime default?  How can I get this to work?
