Sooooo also VOD's are just completely not available as wmv's, anymore?  Cause that's also extremely annoying to find out, after you've already made a purchase.

it does say on the product page which formats are available. :-\

They haven't included them as WMVs since the Christmas one. They probably looked at the stats and decided that there wasn't enough demand. If you are unhappy with the available formats try e-mailing support@rifftrax.com and see if they can help you.

Posted on the wrong thread before, so here it is again. New file library is broken for me. Maxes out my system resources (and I have a modern cpu and 16 gigs of ram-not using a 286 with a dial up connection or anything like that) and I have to force close my browser. Can download only after using the search feature to find what I want to download.

Does it still happen? Every time??  I would e-mail support@rifftrax.com and give your specs and let Erik know. I was a tester for the site before it went live and didn't experience anything like that.

May I have some of your ram? I only have 4 gigs.

I only have 4 Gigs and a 3GHZ core duo and nothing like what he described ever happened to me.

I know things are busy with the live show coming up, but will the iRiffs page get a facelift any time soon?

So...  I have a number of good old cheesy movies in my collection that haven't been riffed by MKB and never will, but iRiff groups have done.  So, I decided to find some of the iRiffs and look at the samples.

Here's the deal.  None of the samples I clicked on actually work.  I know that the iRiffs are of secondary importance from a business perspective, but, when they actually sell, Rifftrax gets a cut, so it is in the company's best interest to have working samples  because people will be more likely to actually purchase an iRiff if they can view the sample and make sure it's worth their money.  That was rambling, but, frankly, it's because I'm frustrated.  I think the point is made.

I've had plenty of problems with the iRiff sample too. Are any of them on the Top 50 iRiffs? A lot of the samples I was able to find were from different sources, not the Rifftrax website. So they might work better for you.

I was accessing them from the main Rifftrax site.  I'll go to the Top 50 thread.  It's been a while since I visited it, even though I linked to it just a few days ago.  Could be I'll find what I'm looking for there.  Thanks.

I still kind of hope the iRiffs area is fixed soon...

Me too. If its not fixed by the time we finish up another riff we may create our own online shop for our riffs.

I know it's been mentioned before, but I would LOVE to have a filter when browsing the catalog of "Hide Items I Own".

Does anyone happen to have the poster artwork for the ICWXP Ghost Rider short?  The only one I can see is the tiny version on the Library page since they aren't showing up on the product pages anymore.

I really like being able to save the posters to use as thumbnails on my WDTV Live Hub.
