Where on the internet did you grow up?
Didn't your papa ever teach you not to email movie clips to a 
mailinglist of several thousand people, some of whom may be on a dialup 
connection? Or to put something in the Subject for that matter?

Anyways. Sample features Indeo Video 5 encoded video. This is a 
proprietary codec. VLC doesn't support it 
(http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html), because there is no Free 
and Open Source version of this codec. Furthermore there isn't even a 
closed source version of it for the Mac, so it's impossible to play on 
the Mac. Complaints to be filed at the Indeo Video corp.
