Argh!

You know what's frustrating? When half your friends list is reccing the same vid (which is by a vidder you know you like) and you can't see it, because your computer is too old to accept the spiffy new avi files.

Right now, I hate everyone with the money to keep their shit upgraded.

*shows teeth*

rant, vids

Have you tried vlc?

kattahj March 4 2006, 11:06:49 UTC

Yup. So far, I've had no use for it.

If it's not the vid card itself, I enjoy the DivX player.

kattahj March 4 2006, 11:07:24 UTC

Got that one too. It helps with some vids, but not all of them.

What vid is it?

kattahj March 4 2006, 13:38:49 UTC

Never mind, I messed around some more and managed to get it to work. Of course, ironically enough now that I've seen it I don't understand what all the fuss was about. Which is pretty typical for me and people's vid recs - I've got an even stranger taste in vids than I have in fics.

roseveare March 4 2006, 13:44:46 UTC

Yeah, but I actually have no idea what vid it is. I'll take a hint - is it Ats?

kattahj March 4 2006, 13:45:45 UTC

*grin* Yeah.

I'm sorry! (I have no money, though. Poor little 5 and a half year old computer...)

Wow, that's not all that much younger than mine - mine's a bit over six. I guess it's the Mac vs. PC thing again. I keep having to tell myself, "no viruses," but it's not helpful, because the only reason for that is that NOTHING IS COMPATIBLE WITH THIS OLD THING.

Seriously. Macs are fine when they're new, but no one cares to adapt things to old Macs.
