Bill, Thanks for the Videos and the download tip. After some messing about, I managed to get the whole set on a DVD. One tip for other computer dummies, you have to first convert the FLV files to AVI or they won't play.

I just got done watching the whole series and have to say something. I started a Corvette search early this year after several years of on & off thinking about one. I originally was looking at C4s. No offence to anyone but after watching this program, I am sure glad I went for the C5.

I downloaded program and saved 2, but when I played back on PC, they were almost black & white, with some color splotches. Any ideas?

Like I said, I used the program Bill steered me to. It's a free download. But first time I did it I downloaded the FLV file as it is on Youtube. It didn't play. I got an error message that the player couldn't read the file. I then checked the box that says convert to AVI file which will play on most video players. It will download first then convert the file. After that it worked fine both on the PC and DVD player for the TV once I burned it to a disc. Hope that helps.

Yeah I did that, used program, checked convert to AVI, saved it then played on PC and color was messed up. Think I need a newer codec version?

I had that prob a few years ago and it was a setting I had set in Windows Media Player, I can't remember which setting it was. What are you using for a player? If WMP maybe you need to upgrade it.

Glad everyone is enjoying the video's, I was lucky and found them on the net.

For those of you that really liked this AND have yet to read the book.....you should try this:

http://www.amazon.com/All-Corvettes-.../dp/0671685015

Bit of a long read and sometimes too much detail but you won't find a more "inside" look than this.
