I was trying to view some of the Sage videos in the HOP video gallery, and I can view the Realplayer ones, but the .mpgs get opened by my system (Mac OS 9.2) in quicktime player and they dont play, just a blank screen. I tried the Realplayer, Windows Media, and none can play them (I tried to copy and paste the link in other players but still didnt work....)
Any Ideas?? I would love to be able to view these other vids! Thanks

your missing the MPEG codecs in your media players or they arnt set.
have you set quick time as default player for that file type?, have a look in quick times options and also try its help file and type in MPEG. not to familular with Mac OS but MPEG is a standard file type and all players should be able to play them as standard.
