Martin's Showreel

I can't get Martin's showreel to play. All my other downloads play with Windows Media Player - but I found this one and it won't play. So I've tried accessing it straight off the website and no luck either. I've tried deleting it and re-downloading it, but no luck either.
I have downloaded Windows Media 10 and have AOL (I know!!) and it plays through their media player.
It used to work, but seems to be the only thing not working now. Is it my machine/settings or is there a problem with this bit of the site?

Hi TM
I had problems too! Couldn't get it to work in Windows Media at all either directly or by downloading it. It wouldn't run in Quicktime either but I did manage it by right-clicking the Quicktime b/b link and saving it.
Oh, and it does take ages and ages to download!!!
HTH

Mr Skint - it's in the "Martin's Bio" section, accessible at the top of the screen.
Allexie - I couldn't get it to work in either media or Quicktime, 'live' or downloaded. Maybe it's not just me then.

Well, knock me down with a feather duster - it's just downloaded and opened in Quicktime

However, it won't open in Windows Media. It comes up but plays about a millisecond then stops. It's not that I want to watch Martin's showreel every night, just wondered if I have a fault or if it's something on this site/the link.0 -
Whats The Darn Link ???? :beer:0

Ya can't post the link - well I can't.
Go to the top of this page, green bar - "Martin's bio"
Halfway down the page - there's the link.
Go on, see if it works for you, then I'll stand ya a pint in the Arms

Cheers for that. It must be the site and not my PC - phew.
media player still doesn't work either way for me. May try it in a few days to see if it's working - will have to try some other sites to see if they are working too. I'm sure I'll find some posted in the Arms, won't I ?
