Lotus Elan and Lotus Elan Plus 2 Forums

Hi All,

Just found a good 16 part set of videos on Youtube, "The Lotus Story" but when I use one of the grabbers to download them the audio/video goes out of sync'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhU8RykKk64

I wonder if anyone can recommend a grabber which would download the material well? Or another source (preferably free) of the film.

Thanks

EDIT: I think I've solved it, looks like the Realplayer downloader keeps them in sync. It looks an interesting film.

Interesting..

I've just looked at part of part 1 and found out that Colin Chapman was a graduate of Engineering at University College London.

So was I

The film illustrates it by showing the 'new' Engineering Department block, which was opened in 1960, (when I was there) so long after Colin left. His training would have been in the Main building on Gower Street south side of the main entrance gate.

Yes I thought it looked good Bill.

Now you just need to discover that you are related to Hazel Williams.......

I just wanted to watch it on TV rather than on my monitor

I assume it's been a commercial release at some time but appears to be freely available on the net even from official sources.

Sorted thanks

but I'm sure my friend will also be interested in the links you provided

Terry,
Are these actually free as in freeware ?
Or will I load them and be greeted with the usual message of "Welcome to your free 14 day trial...." ?
And have a bunch of toolbars to get rid of.
I usually get screwed with these things but if they are free, and they work, then THANKS..

Cheers
Ralph.

Both are free (or were free when I installed them) One asks for donations I think.
You may have to opt out of the toolbar thing but that's quite normal now with Freeware

Thanks Terry, I'll give it a go.

Cheers
