VIDEO SAMPLES

You can stop the show in the Astrochannels Viewer and instead click on each individual object video below or just sit back, enjoy the music and the show.


Some are MPEGs and some are WMVs. They are all in a streaming format, but they don't always work as streaming files (it depends on your system). They have worked in both Windows Media Player and RealPlayer, but some computers/players have problems with them that defy explanation. Some are in season and some are not. Also, for those that are, our live views right now are better than these archived videos.

If you hover your mouse over the filename, you'll see what sort of file it is in the lower left status bar, either .wmv or .mpg. On some computers, the videos stream immediately, in others they download first, which takes longer to view. Once again, the problems seem peculiar to computers, settings and players.

If you've clicked it and it seems nothing is happening, just check your download status.

Also play with your brightness and contrast settings for your preference, and the zoom or size settings. These are 320 x 240 files, but most look better 2 x zoomed to 640 x 480.
