   Milo,

   Love the theme but having difficulty getting a video to play on the My TV. Are the video/image instructions in the readme files the instructions for the player? I tried those with no success. The video plays if i create a link to it in a post and click on it. Website is MySportsCar.org.

   thanks

   You need two custom fields for the built in video player:

   video = for the url to the flv file
   image = for the url to the image file

   upload your video in as a flv file through the wp post panel, cut and paste the url and place the link into the value of your new custom field called video.

   More information on wp custom fields can be found at the wordpress docs.

   Thanks. Switching from .avi to .flv fixed the problem.

   Milo,

   This did fix the problem for Firefox but in Internet Explorer, under "our tv" is "This div will be replaced"
   You can also see it on your demo of Spyker using internet explorer.

   thanks

   I see you switched to the speed theme, which fits much better ;P

   But I'll check this ie error in the Spyker theme.

   milo,

   Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Yes, I did switch to the speed theme and it is perfect. Thank you so much. Love your work!
