Indeed their seems to have been a recent change to
the Mac browser such that downloading wmv files
doesn't work with some versions. From the reports that we have,
viewing the video works fine, saving to disk doesn't.
Also mpeg works fine. It works fine using IE on the Mac.
Mpeg is always the better choice
anyway unless you're using DRM, as wmv IS mpeg with
encryption added so that they can only be played
on Microsoft "approved" software. (AKA the software vendor
paid Microsft's bribe.)
As soon as we get access to a Mac machine we'll
examine the bits flowing over the wire and see exactly
where the Mac browser is broken and implement a workaround.
