 Went to www.archive.org, clicked Moving Images, in the search box searched
 for "Theora".  Picked first movie, which was:

   http://www.archive.org/details/TheLonelyTreeBehindTheScenesOggTheora

 The movie does not play properly in the Flash player that comes up, so I
 tried directly playing via a download link, clicking the "All files: HTTP"
 link in the left margin.  This brings me to:

 http://ia360943.us.archive.org/1/items/TheLonelyTreeBehindTheScenesOggTheora

 Clicking on "LonelyTreeMovie.ogv" (a 15MB file) starts the embedded Ogg
 player.  It plays about half a second of music and then hangs, apparently
 forever.

 I found it hard to figure out whether the movie would play cleanly from
 local flash memory, as opposed to streaming http, because I couldn't
 figure out how to save a Web object to local flash memory from Browse.
