Try this link

My apologies, it is an FLV file and needs something like VLC or FLV-Media-Player to view.

As I mentioned above - you need to download that one, and then open it with an FLV player - either VLC 3.0.2.1 for Windows or FLV Media player, neither require Adobe Flash to be installed. Tumblr and a few other websites used FLV as their video compressor. I have quite a few in this format

I'll look into a video format converter.

I've converted the file using VCL player it will now play as an MP4 - https://1drv.ms/v/s!AmnvTcdD_kalnCFzZqF ... M?e=mfC4YR

For a reason I can't fathom, this will not play within your browser or with Real Player- download it locally and then your MP4 player will play it.

Ones I've tried where it will play - VLC Player, WEBM Player, Windows Media Player. Final Media Player and DIVX .

One possible way is to convert the video file into H.264 video codec, AAC video codec, using MP4 container with faststart enabled. This should allow most browsers to playback the video without having to download, which as you advised, will expose our real identities.

If you are comfortable with using the command line, then ffmpeg is the go-to tool to deal with video format conversions. The official website of ffmpeg is https://www.ffmpeg.org/ and Windows builds can be downloaded from https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/.

A typical command line to perform the aforementioned conversion is given below. In the command line, you will need to adjust the path to the ffmpeg executable, replace input.flv with the actual path to your input video file, and replace output.mp4 with the actual path to your output video file. If you are new to using the command line, consider doing backups in case you accidentally overwrite your existing video files.

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i input.flv -vcodec libx264 -acodec aac -movflags +faststart output.mp4

I posted on Blogger at googlism2008.blogspot.com but I don't recall ever posting on Tumblr. I've seen others reposting some of those photos, but I have no issue with them since all the photos were web finds anyway.

I saved a lot of your blog photos too Googlism. They were consistently great. I always marvelled at how you produced one every day for so many years.

Brief but the grab is there twice.

This one doesn't work either, unfortunately.
