I'm working on the writeup for what I did. It works _very_ well (which

Note 2: U.S.com also has Quicktime playback and it also plays very well.

We have a UnitedStreaming subscription too and if that worked in the lab I'd have one more thing to show off to my teachers and make them consider a wider use. Thanks Eric and everyone else for doing so much, I wish I knew more to be a better help.
