Some problems with irlarchive scenes recently.
Author: T	June 21, 2003 at 13:17:07

I've noticed some problems with the recent archive scenes
(and the video clips in the extra's). Firtsly there's a
sound issue. It's there for about half a second, then it's
silent. Secondly, the video is unskipable. If you jump
anywhere in the timeline, it pauses the motion. The clock
ticks, but nothing moves.

These have only been the case for the last 2 updates that
included any video. I dont know what has been changed, but
it's b0ked whatever it is. I've checked the problem clips
using media player 8, mplayer2 and zoomplayer, and under
win xp and 2k (seperate machines), so i know its not a
hardware problem. The older clips work fine,
Group-Full-01.mpeg, being one that I tried.

Not really much to say i guess about a fix, but hope the
feedback is of use to whoever encodes the clips. As 90% of
people these days have broardband of some variant, please
dont feel you need to cut any corners to reduce the size
(file size not length) of the clips, as if this has been
the case, it has certainly caused some bad problems.
