Thanks so much to anyone who can help me by telling me what to do.

I have a password to Excalibur Films.com, so that's not the problem.

When I click on a film's "See Trailer", I get a popup with a black square but the trailer won't run. There's a little box in the upper left corner of the black square, and the little box features a tiny red square, a blue isoceles triangle and I think a yellow circle.

Thanks again to anyone who can help me by telling me what settings to change on my PC!

i am going the "general" route and not Excalibur specific (bad spelling)

anyway

I am assuming your running Windows XP
I am also going to assume you are running Windows Media Player 10


1) Make sure JAVA is installed and not blocked by your firewall (jawaw .exe is a common one to unblock)

2) Install plenty of codecs, including DIVX (divx.com)

3) Make sure everything is up to date

hope thats of some help

ShiWarrior, it's certainly nice of you to take an interest and take the time to help me.

I don't know if I have Windows XP. I have Windows Media Player on the desktop, don't know if it's Media Player 10.

I installed Java from that link you posted, thanks. So far, no change in Excalibur trailers not running.

I don't know what firewall is in effect. I searched the drive for jawaw .exe and came up empty.

Should I go to divx.com next and download that?

i am not a member so its diffult to judge without playing one myself.

that look like windoes media player files so they should play ok.

on your windows media player, open that up and then click on HELP and goto ABOUT, it should tell you what version is installed.

I know when i tried to play the trailer a new window opens, is that the same with you ? i am wondering if windows is blocking "pop-ups"

let me know

Shi, I checked that, the Properties for Windows Media Player only state "Windows Media Player" without a version number.

I did make sure all pop-ups are allowed.

Unfortunately I still can't get the trailers. The Excalibur site seems to indicate that I need to download as many as three "plug-in's", the first of which, Apple Quicktime 7.1 with iTunes 6, said it would take 5 hours, so I bailed for now.

I don't have an Apple computer, I'm assuming it's a plug-in made by Apple for a PC such as my Compaq.

no, you DO NEED Apple's Quicktime to view .mov files and intergrated videos.

that is proberly what you ar emissing

www.apple.com/quicktime

download that, and install it. reboot and it might just work

what connection are you on ? 2Mb DSL? 56K?
