I've got Windows and Real media players but I guess my problem comes from my computer which is both too full and too old and therefore I can't upload the latest versions of the players. My Windows version is just out of date, I'd be ashamed to name it Too bad for me...

I get the same .. my computer isn't that old and has plenty of space, and when I try to download the "latest" version it just informs me I have the latest version, so I'm in the same boat. My Quicktime works with other stuff too.

Maybe this works: Download the files to your computer (right-click the link, select "save target as") and try to open them locally. Don't know if that solves the problem since I use VLC and haven't updated Quicktime in ages but maybe you're lucky.

Given the fact that numerous people seem to have to trouble to view the recent videos, I hope they'll decide to upload them to another place where they are better accessible.

Tonight I tried saving the videos directly to my computer (as MOV files) ... they worked better than playing them directly on Twitter. I still haven't tried using a VLC player, but I'm using a Quicktime player version 7.6.2.

You and I must have been posting at the same time
I downloaded the files directly to my computer tonight, and they worked better than trying to watch them directly on Meat's twitter page.

I agree ... I wonder if it could also be a problem with Twitter being busy

moving onwards!! i would say its only a matter of weeks before we get the title of the album, maybe even the album cover? it must be nearly finished!! exciting stuff!!
keep up the tweets meat

[RSG]

i cant wait to see the tweets, im ending rock and roll dreams on the storytellers dvd i just bought for third time. not very HD friendly!

[suzieq]

Boy, I'm beginning to think "why" is my computer working when usually it is mine who has the major malfunctions. I hope that the alternative ways helps people because todays tweets were exciting.

I loved Justin's wake up call tweet. Thanks Meat for posting a bevy of tweets today.

Yeah thanks Meat for all the twitters today. It was a nice surprise when I got up to find 3 new tweets, then when I checked a little while later there were 3 more. I loved that one too of the wake up call. And it's exciting to see a new band member too. I wonder if she's an Aussie, Meat asked her in a previous tweet if that was an Australian thing to do.

Yeah Carole, I almost fell over my computer when I returned from the gym to see a list of new tweets. Importantly, I'm glad to know the gang is all accounted for plus one (Georgia). I took her for an Aussie. She had a slight Aussie accent. Oh and Patti is hysterical too. Looks as though she's twitter shy. LOL. She even called Meat an S.O.B.

Glad the atmosphere is lite (no pun intended to the white spotlight tweet) and fun.

I can't see the tweets either. I wish they would post them on Youtube again. Who is Georgia- a singer or musician?

I absolutely agree with you Suzieq
I think the two guys (sorry I forget their names) singing with Randy are from Mother Superior, who wrote "Whore" for Pearl.

Meat,
They are on your channel under Redpony2....the last heading I quickly pulled up was...Meat is nervous. That was posted about 1 month ago. Try that and see if it helps.

Thanks :) I took your advice and installed VLC .. though for some reason I have to save them to my computer and then open to view.

Given the fact that numerous people seem to have to trouble to view the recent videos, I hope they'll decide to upload them to another place where they are better accessible.

And it looks like he will :)

You can also play them from the web. Click "Media" > "Open Network Stream" and enter the link to the video, it should work.

Thank you kind Sir, would help out many I would think. Thank you also for the wonderful updates.

[suzieq]

This was found by Meat's twitter followers. It's a hurry up and vote for @RealMeatLoaf across the various categories. They are finalizing the count this weekend.
