Thanks for the feedback, but Windows 2000 and Windows 98? Really? Adobe Flash is supported on IE6 and can be downloaded from Adobe.com. But I would seriously consider installing Firefox. IE6 has many security issues. The stream is actually using H.264 encoding which is rapidly becoming the web standard, but I will look into providing a legacy option.

I'm sorry to see the cameras require Flash now. It tries to install itself and fails on computers using IE6. Since Microcra...uh..soft won't make a version of IE7 or 8 for Windows 98se or 2000 many of us have to pass and can't veiw your cams and hear the sounds.

There are wmv settings that combine video quality and reduced file size I'd put over Flash any day. The artifacts in Flash video stand out too much and the motion is very jerky on the best systems and high speed connections.

The only thing you have gained is one can't save what they see on your site. Flash not withstanding, that shuttle launch was great. Thanks for all your work to share this. No thanks to Flash.
