Play movie in Eprime2

[David McFarlane]

Good, you ran the basic test and now you know to set aside looking for a 
problem in your movie file and instead look for a more general problem 
in your system setup (or understanding of MovieRT).  If it were me I 
would next try doing all this on a different machine to see if the 
problem lies with the one machine or is something even more general.

Also, please do contact PST Web Support at 
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp .  Reminder:  the 
PST Forum is *not* Web Support, and PST Staff rarely provide any help 
through their Forum.  In general, if you want help then either contact 
PST Web Support or post here to the E-Prime Google Group, best to ignore 
the PST Forum (except for searching the archives) as it regularly gets 
confused with Web Support and beyond that offers nothing that you cannot 
get more readily here on the Google Group.
