If it doesn't work for you, go to www.divx.com and download the updated codec....

AJP · 07/01/2005, 10:13 PM

Here is the link straight to the codec.
http://www.divx.com/divx/play/download/index.php
It is free of charge.

melev · 07/01/2005, 10:20 PM

I'll have to watch it later. My DSL is so slow right now, that it would be a 33 minute download. Is that worse than dial up?

If your internet speeds up, the download should be very quick.

I am actually hosting the video for James and normally hit 1.5mbs or higher for downloads.

melev · 07/01/2005, 10:26 PM

There is some major issue in our city right now, and they call it "latency"

I have no idea when it will be back to normal, but I can't wait.

AJP · 07/01/2005, 10:31 PM

I would think in a city as large as Ft Worth you would get a good connection.

My Aunt lives in Hurst and has a super fast hook up. I will let you know what she has via a pm.

Very nice looking tank. Glad to see you made it through the setbacks with the old tank and in the beginning of the re-construction.

Jamesurq · 07/02/2005, 07:00 AM

WOW - a compliment from Iraq...

Thanks! (oh - and keep up the good work!)

thrlride · 07/02/2005, 04:22 PM

Hey, you got a complement from Iraq, I got an x! Is that like a target or something?

stevedola · 07/03/2005, 10:01 AM

Great Thread! got my vote. The new tank looks even better than the old...good job. All that work was worth it.

Click here for a 12MB video of my tank BEFORE the crash (you'll need divx codecs to view)

nice video, that got my vote

AJP · 07/03/2005, 10:44 AM

James since everyone likes the pre crash vid so much, why don't you shoot a post crash vid and I will host it up also.

melev · 07/03/2005, 11:16 AM

I downloaded the video, but all I get is audio using Windows Media Player.

Sounds like a nice tank.

Marc if you only get audio you have to download the newest divx codec. The orginal vido was 102mb, I compressed the video to make it more managable.

I posted the link at the top of the page.

new2u · 07/03/2005, 11:33 AM

marc i dont know what your dsl is smoking but with SWBell it took me 2 mins :haha: and i'm in fort worth too

AJP · 07/03/2005, 11:34 AM

2 minutes, I can download this in about 30 seconds max

stevedola · 07/03/2005, 12:24 PM

yeh it took me no more than 15sec
and you need divx

Sounds like a plan. I'll have to get the glass cleaned up first.

I'll try to get it to you later today.

That was a couple of days ago. All is well again. And the video works. Thanks for your help. It is a nice colorful tank.

Gawain1974 · 07/03/2005, 02:41 PM

Well James, I just read this thread from beginning to end. I can't get over how much your SPS frags have colored up--even my colorblind eyes could see the difference--amazing. You got my vote!

One little question: any reason why you don't scrape the coralline off of the back glass?

Amazing tank, I'm really jealous.

I'm almost too lazy to scrape it off the front glass !

Congratulations on winning June's Thread of the Month!

Jamesurq · 07/03/2005, 10:48 PM

Thanks Ken!

I should have a couple new videos of the tank set up very soon.

AJP · 07/03/2005, 10:51 PM

One is ready to go, and the other will be in about 20 minutes.

I will post them both when they are ready.

AJP · 07/03/2005, 11:00 PM

Videos are ready for download, enjoy.
