@Hans-Peter Bock: Ever heard of an element of grammar called "punctuation"??? It makes your posts more readable and understandable, so that we don't have to read it 243464525 times to try and figure out what you're saying…

Flash is not a standard. FLash is only cross platform for platforms Adobe chooses to support with it's black box. The link still doesn't work with a default 6.10 Ubuntu non-free flash player, I'll have to try upgrading to version 9.

Actually, @Hans-Peter Bock, I'm very glad that finally, there seems to be a STANDARD and CROSS-PLATFORM way to deliver video to everyone, which is actually Flash. Only a year ago, it was always a "1:10" chance if you saw a "Watch video!" link and you were on Linux. Nowadays, it's rather "10:1" because almost everyone uses Flash, and I'm happy about that :)

@Hans-Peter Bock
Actually, the .SWF videos are playable in the Media Player Classic application. It's free and I believe it runs on most platforms. Just drag-drop the file into the app and you're all set. I recently discovered this so, maybe I should include that in each tutorial post along with the Flash links.

There may be other media players that will play the file as well. Enjoy.

Thanks Bart!

your VT is the one, thanks a lot for taking your time to make it. at least now i and i'm sure all other blenderheads all across the globe have leaned what the "do composite" and "do sequense" buttons do, Your tutorial has served its purpose.

Yes, the videos play back fine on all the platforms that I have access to. If you don't want to use Flash, that's your choice, of course, but don't expect content creators to change their delivery method because of that.

@Hans-Peter Bock: ever heard of a book called Flash is 99% good? I think you're in the 1% No one is going to stop using flash. Update your computer. Sorry if this sounds harsh, but its true.

Is this video tutorial available in a video file format that can be played with an ordinary video player? This flash stuff does not work.

It would be a pity, if Kernons work is useless because it can not be viewed.
