Hi, I just downloaded flip 4 mac and whenever there's a WMV file, it downloads itself (instead of playng in the window.) MPEGs work fine which is the weird thing. I checked the settings on Safari, flip4mac, and quicktime and still can't figure it out. Does anyone know what to do?

Can you get the .wmv files to play at all?

Did you restart safari after installing?

Yes, the WMVs open fine once downloaded. And I didn't have to install Safari so there was no restart.

No, did you restart the application Safari (or whatever web browser you're using) after installing F4M?

Hmm I don't think so. Would that explain the WMVs not working but the MPEGs working fine?

Yes.

Flip4Mac only helps WMVs play. MPEGs play fine with the default QuickTime installation and do not need Flip4Mac.
