<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I located a Siggraph DVD-ROM with a variety of
sample video file types.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Simply double-clicking on a .mpg file started VLC
Client and displayed the video ok.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Double-clicking on .mp4, .avi and .mov files (again
in the Gnome desktop environment window) resulted in an error message:
"Nautilus has no installed viewer capable of displaying..." However, if I
manually start the VLC Client through the RH9/Gnome Sound & Video Menu and
select a .mp4, .avi or .mov file using the Simple Open | Open File dialog box,
then they play correctly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I did notice a minor bug in the Open File dialog
box. As I examined a variety of folders, one after another, without
closing the box, the file path that is displayed over the file list window was
not cleared when a new file or folder was selected, rather it was
overwritten. After a few files and folders were looked at, the path
display was a mish-mash of overwritten characters. The developers might
want to look into this.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am still trying to display the live video feed
from the camera on the WinTV GO composite input.</FONT></DIV>
