@SynchHaving reviewed the above, the page in question shouldn't have a video on it. However, a number of videos on our channel had been set to private which I've corrected. The video which accompanies this download (located on the third page) now works when played on the PC here. Please send me a PM if the problem persists.

Hope this helps,
