It crashed in audio decode, so i wonder if it works for some of you, which would indicate a possible missing codec, though i doubt it will work, and it is likely to be a bug. P.S. This is from http://www.nhl.com/video/app?component=% 24DirectLink&page=GameHighlights&service=direct&sp=S%2F20052006%2F02% 2F0349%2FIH_NHL_2005_2006_349_2_300K_continuous.wmv&sp=349&sp=2 You may be asked to sign up. P.P.S. The last 30 seconds of the clip are especially worth watching.
