Sol141 clouds with dust devils. I've contrast stretched the sky and ground separately to bring out the details. The DDs are quite tall contrasted against the clouds. [attachment=16220:Sol141_Clouds_DDs.wmv] Stormy. But I don't see the DDs.... Any chance to see such an animation in color? |

The DDs come right at the end - last 3-4 frames. Tall columns against the sky. Not to be confused with the clouds.
I'm sure that some UMSF'er could colourise the scene, but I think it would never look quite right. |

I can't see nuttin'!
Wish I knew why so many of these .wmv things knock up a QT page and then show a blank screen. I suppose it's my Zone Alarm wall, but I just wish it would give me the option to be protected or not. ...sigh -------------------- My Grandpa goes to Mars every day and all I get are these lousy T-shirts!

Seems to me you need to associate .wmv and .avi files with your Windows Media Player (assuming you do run some sort of Windows ?), and stop blaming the poor firewall.
The QT player cannot read .avi files such as this one, unless there is some extra codec which you can download for it (if such codec exists, I have no idea), maybe the Mac people here can help. |

Right-click the file and download it. Then change its extension from .wmv.avi to just .wmv. Then load it in QuickTime player. I don't know why... that's just what works here. And you must have Flip4Mac installed. |

I just wanna thank all you wunnerful people around the world for helpin' me out here.
My favorite Chemist hit it first try, and, after roaming around looking for preference menus, I found the one that matters in Firefox! Why all those video file types were assigned to the Quicktime player I have no idea - (I certainly didn't tell it to do that.) - but now they're assigned to the Windows player, and -JOY! - I get to watch Astro0's great movie. Color me happy. -------------------- My Grandpa goes to Mars every day and all I get are these lousy T-shirts!

It has been my experience that when you install various media players, certain ones hijack file extensions promiscuously. You need to be cautious when accepting their installation defaults.
