I tried it on the movie file from the Hoot soundtrack, it worked great.
THANKS!! Mailboat got me the CD on Saturday - tried the download above WORKED GREAT - I did have to convert to MP3 for it to play on my IPOD but just pulled down a free conversion software - I think the sound is fine, I can't tell the difference between it and the other songs I've pulled over - I will have rip the whole CD and add this file so I have 'em all on one - but it's great to have both the video and the song - it is probably one of my favorites on the CD
That song sounded great, and I could care less about the video. I haven't heard it since the summer tour, but I remember it was pretty rockin' for Buffett standards. That song was a highlight in the middle of the damn downpour at Great Woods this year, and was a welcome change of tune while dodging lightning. I agree it should have been on the cd, although I'm just glad it's available somehow. Technology will get that song crankin' in my boat next summer!!!!
I'm gonna need some help ripping that one as well. See, when I record through total recorder, I have to have one of the settings called sound playback set at "playback thru total recorder". Trouble is when I have it set there, quicktime sounds choppy. SO I have to switch playback to "create soundblaster live", but then total recorder won't record it. Anyone have any solutions?

you know, when i used to have total recorder, i had that problem, but i remember fixing it. something to do with quicktime and itunes. google it and i am sure you can find an answer somehwere...
Was wondering if anyone can help with a problem I'm having with the video. When I try to open it, or it tries to open itself, I get the black screen, but that's it. Then I get a Direct Player error message stating "Unable to open file E:\Assets/project.dxr because it is already open with write permission by another user" Anyone have any idea what the issue here might be? Thanks! I saw the video in concert in Detroit and loved it. I was hoping to be able to enjoy it in the comfort (and dryness!) of my own home!

I opened the icon on my desktop, as that's where I saved the AudioExtract file. Click Choose selected the disc drive where the CD was...opened the folder named "assets" - then clicked on the Q file named movie, clicked open....then set the destination file to where I wanted to save the Wave file...then clicked Extract.
Once I had it saved to a folder, as a Wave, I opened that and it went straight into my iTunes folder. I modifed the track count on the album to include 15 songs, placing Here We Are as track 15 and then updaed my iPod.
The file is rather large though, so maybe it's not supposed to be a wave file??? 40.4MB???

I got it working! I had to edit out the first 7 seconds of silence.
Thanks for your help!!!!!

Just wanted to give my two cents... I really enjoy the cd however I do wish Here We Are would have been an audio track in addition to the video. I'll get over it I'm sure. Also just wanted to ask if anyone else is having problems with the video skipping? I watched it several times in a row and it never got better so it can't be a loading problem.
Now as soon as he releases a full length concert dvd with the Here We Are video on it I can die happy. If only Wrigley could have been delayed 3 more months ha j/k

Fall semester in a Southern college town has little to do with studying and more to do with football and fraternity rush. I didn't know much about the football team. Hell at that time I was really an Ole Miss fan and to this day I still cant figure out why I didn’t enroll at the U of Mississippi-JB

I had this problem too. I think it has to do with the transfer rate from the cd-reader.
To get around, I canceled out the play video window that came up when I stuck the CD in, then I looked on the cd-reader drive folder for a folder called "assets', in there was a file called movie.mov - I copied this file to my hard disc. Double clicked on it, and then magic started to happen!!
