Well, then I guess WarpVision runs fine, except for not playing any  
multimedia content that I throw at it.... 
Maybe my WarpVision install and your car both need a tune up to get them  
to play WMV files! 
 From F:\WVGUI, I typed "video2 f:\User\Mpeg\Price_of_Gas.WMV". 
The WVGUI directory on my F: drive is where I unzipped WarpVision back  
in August of 2005. 
I haven't tried using it from SeaMonkey yet, or tried to set up an icon  
to run it from the Desktop, or, if there are other ways to "run" WV, I  
haven't tried those either, since I don't know them.

Also, please remember that I'm still looking for a guide of some kind to  
how I can put all the pieces together to run WarpVision successfully.  
If the "guide" comes in pieces, I would be happy to try and develop it  
into useful documentation for others to use. 
I have read here and there that folks have successfully used (I almost  
said "run") WarpVision to view commercial DVD movies.  So far, I can  
barely get WarpVision to show me the simplest videos.
