Hmm ok, sorry to hear that the Flash and WMV are country-limited. Somehow they work for me here in Switzerland, but I guess it may be because the TV channel Arte is licenced for Swiss viewers online as well.<br><br>Anyways, I posted the links to: <a href="http://armdevices.net/2010/03/23/beautiful-olpc-documentary-film-45min-aired-on-arte-tv-channel-dubbed-in-french-or-german-only-for-now/">http://armdevices.net/2010/03/23/beautiful-olpc-documentary-film-45min-aired-on-arte-tv-channel-dubbed-in-french-or-german-only-for-now/</a><br>
<br>I can upload my 2.5mbit VGA Mpeg4 recording to one of my servers later, if it's just to send around online for the French-speaking VIPs.<br><br>Though I am sure the producers are going to be very successful distributing this Documentary to all the major TV stations around the world. It is really beautiful how they filmed in Peru, Rwanda and Cambridge.<br clear="all">

<pre>Let's see what they reply. Although I guess one can usually be quite
pessimistic about any Broadcast company allowing for any type of online
distribution, as their business is to sell the exclusive rights to TV channels.
Maybe I could email a URL of the video on my FTP server to the people of the
olpc mailing list, I recorded the French version.

<pre>if you examine the HTML page, it contains hints about a URL for a WMV version
but (as far as I can tell) can only get used in the appropriate countries.
e.g.
