you have to wait for it finish downloading, and then click on the play button, and then you also have to sometimes move the whole browser window (some strange thing with windows media encoder) to get it to be visible after clicking on the play button (you can replay it again by re clicking on the play buttoN)
works for me...anyone else?

Works now but only if you stick it through the seperate windows media application.

Needs some more hours on it.. and maybe slow it down even?

Cheers ;)

what i need to do now is to sequence the images so that it ends at the time now...
as it is now because its based on time and hour and day, its not a good sequence...becuase yesterday gets put in before todays, etc...
