I thought about that. Thing is, if the people creating these videos is using this new method, I'll have to convert those newer ones in the future as well. At some point, I'll be having to convert a lot of them which is time consuming and somewhat annoying. I don't mind the file size to much, just want to be able to watch them, even newer ones. I might add, eventually I'll need to upgrade to these versions anyway. I could end up with the same problem if it is something I did wrong, bad USE flag or something. Best way, fix it so it works. Then maybe not have problems for a long while. :-D Dale :-) :-)
