ZLK deserves a big thank you as he sourced so many of the videos, especially the great 600MB+ superplays.

I'll hopefully be able to upload them to usenet after this line is gone, however I'll need a posting program that can schedule uploads to after-hours. Any ideas? Does power-post do this? and what group would be good?

I spent about 2 and a half hours downloading one of those Ben Shinobi Merry Dog and some other RSG replays, and there was only a bit of sound availible and no video at all.

( all other avi files I ever downloaded, except a couple of other shooter game replay ones, have worked perfectly well......... )

What do I need to play the .gmv and .fmv files on the replay sites that PepsimanVsJoe listed??

Those are emulator input files, Dave. Most emulators have their own formats. Famtasia uses .fmv and Gens uses .gmv. You'll need a custom version of Gens to play those back, since movie making/playback isn't supported in the official version.

Well.. the line is gone and three weeks and 400GB of traffic later you should all at least have a few more vids than you did before.
