2003 video clip

[macfan 57]

Here's a video clip from the Capital Gold Legends Awards in Sept. 2003. Fleetwood Mac won the legendary album award for Rumours. Christine accepted the award on behalf of the band. Christine comes on at about the 12 minute mark. She gives a very brief, little speech & then there is a little interview snippet.

By the way, does anyone who has a little tech saavy know how to save this to your computer?

Doesn't she look like Helen Mirren?

Or should I say doesn't Helen Mirren look like Christne McVie

I don't think it's Windows 98 friendly.:confused: It says it requires a plugin, which usually means it wants WMP #10, which isn't 98 compatible.:shocked:
Thanks Microsoft, for making my OS obsolete....

I know. It's uncanny. Remember this picture of Christine...er Helen Mirren? It's from this same awards show.

I do have Windows XP, but I have no idea if it's compatible with that.:confused:

I tried saving it from the source (http://stream2.capitalinteractive.co.uk/gold/video/l/legendshi.wmv), but it said access denied. Damn them!

Darn it! But, thanks for trying.:)

I can capture it (I think that is the only option to save streaming media) if you like, but it is already quite compressed, so the quality won't be very good.

That would be great! The quality of the video isn't the greatest anyway, at least not as good as the quality of the clips on Christine's website. I'd be grateful if you could do this.:)

capturing...back in a sec

that minor disappointment aside, Chris looked fab. It's nice to see something so recent, aside from the clips on her official site. Lookin' good. :) She looks more natural there than in the pic that was posted. I never liked it; looked kind of unnatural, with the bright lipstick and all.

Here it is. The blurry image and flashing black are exactly as it appears on my computer - I wish I could have fixed that. Perhaps someone else will have a better stream, and can also grab it for you. For some reason, the High res stream on the site won't play smoothly, and the lo res stream flashes black, as if the there is some frame rate problem. I will try it on another browser, and if it is better, I will capture that as well.

Thanks so much! I just downloaded & played it. This is the first time that I used my Quick Time player. It actually looks a bit more clear than the video that I could see before on my computer. It's a shame about those black flashes, but this is better than I thought it would be. I intend to copy it to CD. I had always wanted to get this video clip somehow just in case the website deleted it. Thanks again!!

I do have Windows XP, but I have no idea if it's compatible with that.:confused:
In the past six months, I've run into several files that will only play on WMP 10.
When you go to MS to download it, it tells you that 10 is for XP only.

Strategic obsolesence.:mad:

Christine McVie is true class.

Thanks Mary Anne for posting this for us to see. I enjoyed seeing her so calm and collected. Retirement has been god to her. I was a bit surprised she had such a vocal regard for Thriller.

Thanks to you for pointing us to the video!

Me too. No surprise that she loves Sgt. Pepper, but Thriller...that's a bit of a surprise. Michael Jackson really turns me off on a personal basis, but I think Thriller is a great album.
