The file you have downloaded is in fact, a playable video with the wrong extension (see "* Why" below). Just change the file extension from ".zip" to ".m4v" and ignore any warning from your computer regarding the dangers of changing an extension. The name for this file AFTER you make the above change should be "rome_clips.m4v" (to change the name on a PC, just right click on the file name and choose "Rename" - to change the name of a file on a MAC, just slowly double click on the file's name). If you are going to view the video on your iPad, you may have to first download the file to your computer, and then move the file to your iTunes folder, and finally sync your iPad to your iTunes folder. If you are going to view the video on your computer (as opposed to an iPad), be sure to put the files on your "C" drive and not an external drive. External drives may not be able to deliver the HD video data fast enough to avoid video stuttering. Now click on the link below and your download should start automatically. If it doesn't start automatically, please copy and paste the link into your browser: http://www.downloadsbyvita.com/fdl/rome_clips.zip You may view this 8 minute HD video using either the iTunes player, the Quicktime player or the VLC media player. * Why: Even though this file is really a playable .m4v file, to force your browser to download it automatically for you, we temporarily changed the extension to .zip. Downloading to an iPad:iPad Downloads: It appears that Apple has designed the iPad so that it can only download directly from iTunes.com. As we understand it, iPads are not permitted to download directly from our website or any website other than iTunes. And BTW, we have contacted iTunes to determine if we can sell our downloads through the iTunes store..... answer: no. iTunes.com is only interested in doing business with companies that can upload a minimum of 100 video titles. Since we have less than 30 titles to upload, we don't qualify. There is a work-around though. To download one of our video files for your iPad, you must first download it to your computer. That computer can be a Mac or a PC - desktop or laptop. After first changing the extension from .zip to .m4v, you then move the resultant m4v file to your iTunes folder and sync your iPad to your iTunes folder and the video will be transferred to and available for viewing on your iPad. Just be sure to change the extension before moving it to your iPad. Downloading to a Computer:Downloading to your computer - be it a desktop, a laptop, a tablet or netbook - is rather simple.
