thedwork Posted December 21, 2010 Report Posted December 21, 2010 i joke w/ my family every once in a while about how good i am at using google to find whatever i'm looking for - and i am pretty good at it. but i can't for the life of me find that clip/video of philip glass on the colbert report doing that segment called We Are At War. this kinda stuff is usually a snap to find. if anyone can direct me to where i could find this i'd appreciate it. or, if anyone knows why it has been taken down from seemingly EVERYWHERE, i'd also appreciate it. i assume there was some legal issue w/ the segment but i can't find a discussion about that either. i know i know - it's a weird thing to wanna track down but... wtf Quote
thedwork Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Posted December 21, 2010 here is it playing for you rostasi? Quote
BERIGAN Posted December 21, 2010 Report Posted December 21, 2010 Try here then... http://www.mefeedia.com/video/27754016 Quote
medjuck Posted December 21, 2010 Report Posted December 21, 2010 That's great. Reminded me at times of Laurie Anderson. I think it's hard to find because Viacom won't let YouTube use anything from Cpmedy Central or any of their other networks. Quote
thedwork Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Posted December 21, 2010 Try here then... http://www.mefeedia.com/video/27754016 thanks beri. that one actually played (i found that one before but didn't play it because the site had a big, dark, all-screen-encompassing pop-up ad that i thought looked pretty suspect...), but wouldn't allow me to download to my realplayer - which is what i wanna do! my download function on my player is working so if anyone else can find another place this vid is at i'm still in need...

rostasi Posted December 21, 2010 Report Posted December 21, 2010 Sorry that you had a problem accessing the vid. I can get both links, but I understand the need for a more user-friendly standard codec. I gave a video link in a Hank Williams post that only some were able to see, so it remains a minor problem. Anyway, try here and tell me if you're able to not only see it, but download it as well. The video is poking fun at Brion Gysin too! Rod Quote
thedwork Posted December 22, 2010 Author Report Posted December 22, 2010 (edited) hey rod: Sorry that you had a problem accessing the vid. I can get both links, but I understand the need for a more user-friendly standard codec. even though it won't play for me, thanks again. but just for me to sure, are you saying that you can watch the vid you posted above? it's not clear from what you've written (in my mind, "getting the link" doesn't mean the same thing as being able to watch something. i know - i'm anal...) Anyway, try here and tell me if you're able to not only see it, but download it as well. this one won't load for me either. has everyone else who has looked at this thread been able to watch the two vids rostasi linked to without problems?!@#$% Edited December 22, 2010 by thedwork Quote
rostasi Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 OK, well, that last one was from my own website and is a .mov file. Do you want this movie in .flv or H264 or DivX or wmv or....what exactly? Maybe there's a reason that it's not so widely available. Quote

rostasi Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 Here, let's try one more thing... You can see in the picture below that I am watching your video using RealPlayer, so it does work using that, so what you can do is download this folder to your desktop and inside is the small movie. Then open it in your RealPlayer - you did say that you use RealPlayer yes? Let me know. Quote
