Not quite... all except On The Wire and Doctor Jeep will run under Windows IF you've got QuickTime installed. But for these two, I haven't figured it out yet. Simply adding a ".mov" at the end won't work...

But thanks for everything so far!

thanks for videos

on first you mainly filming roof?

poor about not working dr jeep and on the wire, they are 0B files :[

TheBoyNextDoor · 08 Mar 2006, 19:36

On the Wire and Dr Jeep doesn't work because the filename contains a : (colon) which is not allowed in Windows (don't know about Mac).

Thanks so far though!

Erm, we suggest opening them on a Mac...

Failing that, the best all 'round, play-any-type-of-file-in-the-world media player of which we are aware is VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/), which is available for most platforms and has just been tested with these files, for which it seems to do the trick.

Failing that, we're right out of ideas, as we didn't get to Philadelphia from DC till 4:00am this morning. After confirming that the Sisters tour bus had, in fact, reached the venue by 8:00am, it was all we could do to separate the .mov's into disrcreet units and bundle them in a .zip archive. We hope you can get them working, but in the meantime, we need sleep, then liquor, then prep-time to see the Sisters. Good luck.

BOX out.

Doesn't do the trick for me either

(nor does BSPlayer)

Removed all the dots in the file name, but still nothing...

..thanks for these videos - marvellous what you can get from a phone!! (Not mine of course - i can do texting Full Stop!)

I used Quicktime and everything was fine (sorry Zeno!)

itnAklipse · 08 Mar 2006, 20:01

So does anyone have a trick for renaming the files with the colon? i didn't even notice first that my computer refused to unpack them. Tried renaming them with zipgenius inside the archive but that wouldn't work..

I'll just blame my 'puter... It's acting odd anyway these days

(No virusses apparently, but dreadingly slow, Winamp plug-ins disappearing, crashing for no reason, ...

Well, it basically is. Especially the album version, where the acoustic's buried in the mix for most of the song. It's the most "metal" thing to appear on a Sisters album, methinks.

For what it's worth, my metal band covers it. Arranged for two electrics, of course.

James Blast · 08 Mar 2006, 20:22

top pix, thank you ladies

If ribbons sound like metal song, what about crash & burn riff?

Ozpat · 08 Mar 2006, 20:23

Great!!!!!

Thanks!

OK, sorted. Nothing to do with RealPlayer/Quicktime etc but Unzip - I downloaded a new unzipper and it worked fine.

Obviousman · 08 Mar 2006, 21:02

Now it works, thanks Barracuda

Great videos too

Ha. You mean the two girls that pushed their way up to the front near the end of the show? One of them had hair extensions and a lot of tribal tatoos and the other was fairly non-descript... but dressed in white.. I think. Well, Ben does have that 'teen heartthrob' look about him.

There was a guy moving back and forth in the space between the barrier and the stage, filming segments of the show with a digicam. I wonder if he was employed by the band to do so.

Ah thanks!
Now all videos works! Wonderful.

Stuffit Expander on the Mac converted the : to / on the fly.

some characters are off-limits to certain operating systems.
UNIX and OS X will make a file invisible if you name it starting with a period.

thanks for the vids.

Planet Dave · 08 Mar 2006, 23:19

It won't let me even get as far as downloading the file.

I'm trying a free download using Mozilla. Is that bad? Cos I sure as sh1t ain't paying them for the pleasure. Any ideas, techno-kids?
