After having my available bandwidth sucked dry by a couple of download hogs, I've moved my repository to FTP, where I can better control who gets what and how fast. http://www.snikte.net/RX-8/ will give you a link to the FTP site.

I can't see it in any of my available media players. Please convert it to a user friendly format!

Want to see it bad ... thanks mate!

>> Since then I have download the MPEG - 2 codec and can see the clip

It is great... I try and see if I can convert it to more user friendly format and share it in my site - if that is ok for you

I've downloaded many of the videos from your site Takahashi, but I've found the quality of the German commercial was best while the others were not very good.
Any reason for this...is anyone else having a similar problem? And is there anything I can do differently when I save to my hard drive that would help the playback quality with Windows Media Player.
Thanks btw--the vids are great otherwise!!

as listed in the site... there are different bits rate of all the videos. Some are long and will make it over 10Mb if taken in 300kps... I think the German Ad is at 600+kps (kilobyte per second). It is due to limited space in the server and I don't want to host my server as I don't want any body to heck my hard drive. At least this way, the hecker will heck a remote site.

If you want full version Senna I can mail it to you as long as you can provide me the mailing cost. P/M me

Alternatively, you could try my site: http://www.snikte.net/rx-8/

I have not recompressed anything, but I dont have them organized and labelled either - it's just a stockpile of everything I've collected. If you know what you're looking for, give it a try.
