    Hi,
    Shot in the dark (again).
    Does anyone know where I could get a short animation of the solar system (has to be a .fla or .avi file or the like to be compatible with Adobe Captivate). I am creating a presentation and would like something on the opening screen.
    Been looking for the last hour and cant find/download anything.
    Thanks

    Just a thought, you could use a programme that grabs Videos from the likes of youtube etc and use that.

    The nasa website has loads of these clips.

    Will this one do?



    I just grabbed it there and converted to avi for you (DivX & mp3)
    Uploaded the avi here

    If you're gonna use it drop the owner a mail and ask if it's ok. :)

    Megaupload is having probs so you can grab it from here instead

    I downloaded the video grabber but the trial version has expired already - everytime I viewed a clip it of anything, it would automatically upload to the video grabber - and it took a few attempts to find a clip I wanted and now I cant convert it.

    Thanks edge. Need a flash or avi file. Was going to put the youtube link to the bottom of the slide (its a presentation type thing Ive to do).

    Is there anything else like video grabber?
