Attached is a video of the famous Dynamizer, owned by Sugiura-san, successfully completing a course similar to the Bot-Trot 4Bottle Race.

This usually implies that you don't have the latest codecs installed on your computer. I'll pass this on to the webmaster to see if he has any suggestions.

NOTE ON VIDEO FILES

Video files on this site are typically available in AVI or WMV formats. Both use what are called "codecs" to compress the files to sizes that can be downloaded quickly. These codecs tend to change over time, and the newest video files tend to use the most recent codecs (to ensure the best balance of quality and small file size). If there is a problem playing a video file (such as no audio or no video, or if the video does not display correctly), it's likely due to the fact that the system used does not have the most current codecs installed.

This topic is bigger than the space we have here, but here are a few tips:

The site, www.videohelp.com (http://www.videohelp.com/) is an excellent resource to resolve all manner of video issues, including codec downloads, software guidance and product comparisons.
On the above site, codecs can be found here: http://www.videohelp.com/play#divx. Be sure to get the DivX and Xvid codecs - these will probably render most AVI files.
Be sure you have installed the most recent version of your video/audio player software. Windows Media Player and Winamp (www.winamp.com (http://www.winamp.com/)) are both excellent, free choices. New players typically come with the newest codecs.
A useful and free software product, AVIcodec, will identify the codecs used to make a given video file, and determine if they are installed. It will even tell you where to get codecs that are not installed. Details are here: http://www.videohelp.com/play#identify.

Ok, your using Windows media player (probably version 11 URGE) and you have sound but no video... Try this, it worked for me:

Open Windows Media Player
Right click on the top next to where it says "Windows Media Player"
Mouse over "Tools"
Left click "Options"
Left click on the "Performance" tab
Left click on the "Advanced" button (near bottom)

Under "Video Acceleration" uncheck "Use overlays"

I also unchecked "Use overlays" under "DVD Video"

Click "Ok" on both windows, close the player, re-open the player, and give it a try.

Hope this helps!!
