So, we've been native v6 here for a number of years.  Figured I'd give
this a shot, only to be greeted with:

   The application VLC quit unexpectedly

   Mac OS X and other applications are not affected.

As long as we're doing forward-looking, brave-new-world stuff, would
it be asking too much to say "use h.264 or something else 'standard'
for the video"?

Best,
                                        ---Rob
