I heard the reason some people can't find it is because it's in a package, and therefore doesn't get searched with the normal search. Is that true?

Here's a topic (started by me) about the Panther movie:
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/102919/

If someone gets the Tiger movie, please post it! :)

sorry, the compuer froze and i couldn't start back up so i had to reinstall the os but anyways i uploaded the movie, maybe you could post a link so everyone could see. keep in mind this is compressed. the regular quality one looks much sharper.

well the full quality one is 15.1mb i actually opened the video with quicktime and just pasted the audio with it and then when i saved it quicktime flattened the audio and video as one.. i don't think that's a feature of the current quicktime... but yea i like how the intro video kinda plays on spotlight technology. but tiger is awesome but still many bugs. it's on it's way! btw i was sent the tiger server dvd as well and it comes with a serial that says it will expire on may 31st so i dunno if that means anything???? maybe a release date??

I hope you get that up soon, Im really anxious to see it.

I was wondering if there was a way to get the panther intro movie to play when I turn on my computer, before it goes to the desktop?? TIA

Is the picture supposed to go black halfway through?

Otw, nice spotlighting!

yes it is... cuz the movie stops playing but the music continues as you register....
