1254626	2012-01-17 04:14:00	I have to watch instructional videos for one of my college courses. The teacher said the online school program works bests with firefox. I DL that and all is well there. We wanted us to DL reaplayer to watch the videos and I did. However, after about a minute it freezes up and just says communicating and does nothing. He then told me to DL VLC player and try that one. That will start but then stop and pause after a bit too. My friend then said to DL the videos to real player so that I was not opening them up over the internet (which could be the communication problem). Well I did that, and I seem to be getting sound, but no picture. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks in advance, Ang	angchick (16026)
