I finally got around to making a video demonstrating how to clip a bird's nails. I decided to include audio and to draw directly onto the video to help illustrate where to cut and how to avoid the quick. I would really appreciate anyone with 3 minutes and 30 seconds to spare to review the video and let me know if it plays well on your computer, if the audio comes across understandably, and if the video itself makes sense. The video is intended to teach beginners about nail trimming, so keep that in mind as you watch it.

Thanks so much :)

Maybe i was too impatient, but it just sat on "Connecting to Media" in windows media player for the longest time and didn't load anything. I'll try again later.

edit. i'm not sure if it is the file size or what, but I did get sound when i was trying to ctrl alt del out of the application. I'll try on my husband's computer since he probably has better hardware/software than i do

Would it work if you right click and saved the file onto your computer?

No, it just hung also. It may be windows media player. My husband uses gom (?) and i got video on his, but no sound...

So it probably works, I'm just an ignoramus

Hmm :/ My goal was to have it usable by a wide variety of computers. Maybe I can try encoding the video differently.

Thanks for trying!

Great video! That is definitely a great example of nail clipping. I didn't realize it had talking to and until the middle of the video and then turned my speakers up.

My computer has RealPlayer, and it worked fine. Great video!

Beautiful job! It played just fine for me in Windows Media Player on a Mac.

It worked beautifully. Just what I needed. Thank you so much!

Terrific job Crystal.

Video worked great for me using Real Player.

updated wmp and now it works

Yay! Great, thanks guys :)

My birdies thank you. No more long trips to see the bird lady at the Farmers' Market for nail trimming.
