Title: Hal, Our Reporter in Minneapolis (Podcast of 35W Bridge)
Post by: JimH on May 10, 2008, 09:59:25 am
You might remember the series from Carolyn, our reporter in New York City (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=33089.0).

We've got the first episode of a new series from Hal, our reporter in Minneapolis.  He covered the 35W Bridge collapse and reconstruction in this podcast.

Do you have CCCP installed and MP4 set to be decoded through DirectShow? (It works for me. MC uses Haali Media Splitter and FFDShow Video & Audio Decoders.)

I just added another episode of the bridge reconstruction.  Hal interviews an engineer from Flatiron Constructors.

The interview stops playing about halfway through for some reason...

It looks like a bad upload.  I'll fix it tomorrow.  Sorry for the problem.
