Re: [G Star] Re: Milky Way timelapse v2

Guys,
 
I have to say. RBA's video of the Milky Way brings you right back to the nights at GSSP (not the real cold night) (or the stormy night) but one of the good ones.

It wouldn't play. I am using Safari 4 on a MacBook, WiFi connection. The window came up and the play/pause button. I clicked on Play and it looked as tho something was loading, but nothing showed. I tried turning off HD, but that didn't make any difference. I'd like to see it. Any suggestions. Could you change it to QuickTime format?
