Does anyone else on this forum experience a file preview that looks like a quicktime movie playbar in the preview column when selecting a library object [ .gsm]????


Yes I had this with the previous version of the GDL web plugin when using a "non standard" browser (I use Firebird)... Quicktime played the gsm as if it was a sound file, with very unpleasant music !

I updated to the new version of the GDL plugin, and I think it worked (or did I use Internet explorer for that page ? can't remember...)

This problem is also being discussed in another forum (I forget which). It would be nice for Graphisoft (or anyone who knows an answer) to address this. It is quite annoying and seems like it should be a simple thing to fix.

I know what you mean. Why can't we play them in iTunes???

I know what you mean. After all, the repetitive beat makes them easy to dance to.
