I have a video in .ASF-format. The video uses the Windows Media Video V7 format. The needed codec is included in Mediaplayer 7.0. However, this program does not install on Windows 95. I have Mediaplayer 6.4 installed, but it does not have the needed (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

G'day folks, Thanx to everyone who helped me with the tests! :] I figure there no sense in doing any more at this point.

[FUT lugnet.off-topic.geek so I don't clutter .auction] G'day folks, As you've probably read I've been having problems with search result data on ebay.

As far as macro shots go (especially LEGO) I use the LCD for composing the shot, since that gives me an SLR effect and what I see is almost exactly what I will get in my shot. With any non-SLR camera, macro mode is near useless since parallax is (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
