The sound is terrible for me, and the whole thing stops playing at 00.35.

Clicking pause/play again solved that one but the sound continued to get worse.....kind of garbled/warbled.....???? and also stopped completely at 00.37.......had to hit pause/play again to get the sound back.

There's enough visual info though to get through it.

Thanks, helpful.

Cheers.

Yeah same here.

Although it keeps playing the (bad) sound stops at 00.35.

I'll look into it further, but for now thats how it is.

Regards.

EDIT:
Nah....no go....not much I can do with an embeded swf file. Other swf files play fine, but then thats straight from the source so.....I dunno?

If you want to keep it as swf, just upload the file instead of embedding it. That way it gives people a better chance of sorting out any problems....if there are any.

Regards.

ive googled some answers and updated the first post, it seems that to view web content encoded within camtasia studio you need to have the codec. I have now added a codec download link. Sorry everyone I will remember for next time that I will encode it to a movie file.

Fantastic Tute Greeney, ive never used PF Source, well not even particles yet, but im keen to get home and give it a try.

Unfortunatelly, I downloaded the codec but still had voice issued. It was crackelly the whole way through. and the last minute or so of the tute, the screen goes all red and regenerates only in the areas you move your mouse.

Strange.

But its still easy to follow, and well explained

Thanks Greeney
