18 hours compressed into 1 minute.  I hope you are able to play it - I encoded it as a DIVX.

Probably best to save the avi to your hard drive before playing it.

Can't play it. I get this message:
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or a required codec might not be installed on your computer.

I've updated Windows media play and change my internet settings and it still won't play.

How do you apply a codec?

Download VLC and use that. It is cross platform and will play just about any codec.

Very good Mark. Can it be made slightly slower?

If you use the laptop that you use to do the 'Find in Red' to get to level 10, the other day, that should really slow down the video.  :lol:

A full HD version would be rather big but I'll see what I can do.
