Seeing as how it's getting close to the season, and since Telstra finally upgraded my local exchange so now I've also got Bigpond 1500/256 ADSL, I thought I'd review a few Melbourne games from 2006 at afl.com.au to hype myself up for Season 2007.

I went to the Video page, searched the 2006 list, picked "Final Series Week 1", chose "4th quarter" from the drop down box and clicked play. The media player screen came up, I logged in using my Bigpond user name (the video download doesn't add to your user allowance) and waited for the video to start. But what started was the first quarter, not the 4th. The url even showed "... ?quarters=4" at the end.

When I went to view the 3rd quarter, the same thing happened. When I went to other games, they all started the first quarter, regardless of what quarter I picked.

Could someone try it and tell me whether they get the same result? Is there another avenue into the same video that might work? If others get the same result, I'll contact Bigpond and try to sort out the problem.

BTW, the replay in a small window on my 1600 x 1200 monitor isn't bad. Quite acceptable quality and a good video resource.

OK, seems the problem is a "known issue" and it's going through the boffins to higher and higher levels to fix.
