Stephen-

   I tried it in QuickTime and had a heck of a time configuring the playspeed and skipping frames when trying to pause. Windows Media Player on the other hand worked much better for my purposes (no axe to grind, just happened that way)...

I have WMP 9 Player on XP and I’m not sure if I must have downloaded a plugin, but there’s a Playback Settings under “Plugin->Enhancements” which allows you to run the video at various speeds (1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2/1, blah blah blah). You can also step frame by frame, which worked very well for finding my MOCs :)

I couldn’t find any frame rate settings on the WMP that came with my less-than-a-month-old 1.7 GHz Pentium M laptop running W2000. The default supplied player would run for a few seconds, then freeze a frame, then run and repeat. I initially assumed the behavior was what Todd had intended. OTOH, QT ran a a little jittery for a few seconds and then kept up 100% of the way.
