it's not working in windows!!!! tried on win xp pro with reg quicktime, says encoding isn't right.

Edit 19h20 oops! the encoding I used (default) is only available in QT 7. Following instructions from the Freevlog tutorial, I am trying an older, more universal one which will hopefully work better.
