Thanks for that - only trouble is I can't get WM Encoder 7.1 working. I get
an input and output display when I start encoding, but can't see it when I
try and view it in a browser.

I've got a broadband cable connection to the internet so that's  not a
problem. Do I just need to start encoding and that should be that, or do I
need to be running something else ? I'm typing the following into my
browser
http://x.x.x.x:8888     where 8888 is
the port set in WM encoder.

Any thoughts ?

Simon
