chriscotton Group: Members Posts: 8 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Mar. 08 2005, 07:01 Hi all, I am just wondering if anyone knows how i can get hold of a PC version of the Multimedia files from TSODE. Currently they can only be viewed on a Mac i believe. I can only get small snippets and i have waited too long to access these on my CD. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i could either download a programme to convert them, or does anyone have a copy they would be willing to share/sell/whatever? Regards, Chris Cotton Lobethal South Australia. Back to top

Macs with CD players have been around quite a while now, and the older ones are pretty much worthless (like Pentium 60 mhz PCs)....but they will play TSODE. It did not take much asking around before I found an old Mac someone gave me for free for playing TSODE. -------------- "In the land of the Dacotahs, Where the Falls of Minnehaha Flash and gleam among the oak-trees, Laugh and leap into the valley." - Song of Hiawatha Back to top

Herod Group: Members Posts: 85 Joined: Jan. 2004 Posted: Sep. 22 2010, 07:37 The problem (for me) is that TSODE isn't viewable on new Macs either.

Thanks, Milamber. But that tiny little moving postage stamp is hardly satisfactory, and the link to the "private" full version seems nonexistent. Does anyone have a file share, or know of an emule site (or vuze location) where this can be downloaded? The video looks oojah-cum-spiff (don't ask, Ugo! ) and I'd really like to see it. Back to top

It takes the OS that came before OSX (i.e. OS 9)   It runs okay on my Powerbook G4 using OS 10.4, but I think it's more because it's got a PPC chip rather than an Intel. None of this helps you get the videos though. It really is the kind of thing that could probably be recreated in video DVD form. Back to top

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4770 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Sep. 23 2010, 05:29 I've just had a closer look at that Amadian site. You can get a CD of the video playable on a PC, correct? But there are no details as to how to get the CD. If anyone knows, please message me privately. Back to top

Milamber Group: Musicians Posts: 2275 Joined: Feb. 2010 Posted: Sep. 23 2010, 05:47 Its an old site NS maybe abandoned   I just tried to lift the files of the disc (Im running Windows 7) and I cant even get my PC to recognize that there on it. Maybe if we ask Mr Cochrane nicely he could provide them and then I/we could transcode them ourselves . Back to top

Spinne Group: Members Posts: 397 Joined: May 2003 Posted: Oct. 09 2010, 17:46 There's a bootleg called WSODE that includes a version for PC of both multimedia tracks (the original and the one on the reissue). I have uploaded the files here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WVFN3CLL You need to install the 16 bit version of Quick Time (which is included on the pack). You don't need to delete present versions of Quick Time if you have it already installed, just install the old version included on the RAR and enjoy   Back to top

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4770 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Oct. 10 2010, 00:55 Hmm... Can't get past the menu with this. As soon as I click on one of  the pictures I'm left with a black screen and an odd-looking cursor. I installed QT. Back to top
