Les, it says, "some plugins required by this page have been blocked for your protection." I saw no bar and I get no option to download on Real Player. When using Internet explorer I never saw any bar, just the Real Player download box since I have Real Player. I had to actually download them to my hard drive to see them. I think Bob is right that your videos are fine and it is a Quick Time problem. Is it possible to put them on a windows program such as Windows Movie maker?

I agree that the Port Orford sound more like Spanish cypress than maple and also have the look, but since playing on a maple, I have found I like the sound and response better. I have been told by several that myrtlewood sounds much like maple. I would be interested to hear the sound of a myrtlewood flamenco. Maple was traditional flamenco before cypress, but since cypress took over it is considered by most to be the traditional wood for flamencos.
