The ONLY video I can't play at C-SPAN's site is Rosa's
When am I allowed to put on the :tinfoilhat:? Seriously, it's driving me crazy. I missed a few very important speakers yesterday, as I was in and out of the room. I can't play the videos at the Detroit Free Press site at all, I have no idea why, they're just wmv files. They're all giving me error messages, but I can play wmv's everywhere else. And then I go to C-SPAN's site and find that I can play any video at their site EXCEPT for Rosa's. I can play the short one of the funeral which they have featured on the main page, but I can't play the full 6-hour one at all. I get an error message that says the URL on that piece is missing important info.

Are there any other sites out there that are hosting speeches from yesterday's event? I'm starting to get desperate.

2. Just woke up-I'm going to do a video of Bill Clinton and also
Al Sharpton. I wasn't watching the funeral yesterday so don't know if there were other good speakers. Will put it up on CanOFun within the next hour or so, listening now.

3. Thanks to both of you
I saw the last half of Bill, would love to see the first half, he was incredible. Say anything else in the world about him, but the boy can SPEAK. Also, I was hoping to see our Gov. Granholm. For some reason, I can never open CNN videos, but BBC is a great idea.

Thanks again, y'all!

8. Thank you so much for what you do! It is greatly appreciated
by those of us who can't watch these important events as they occur. Will you be putting up the sermon of the reverend I keep hearing about? I think Perkins? was his name. He appeared to leave quite an impression. I'd love to see it.

I hope one day all of CSPANs video archives go back online.

10. Not playing for me still.
I've tried on several different computers today, different places, no one can bring it up, but everyone CAN bring up the other videos at C-SPAN, so it's not just me. Can it be that it's playing erratically because it's in high demand? I'm so frustrated!
:(

11. My guess is that the file is huge and too many people are trying to
load it. I noted that they are selling DVDs of the service in Washington. I'd like to have a copy of the service at Greater Grace. Does anyone know if that is a possibility?
