What player or codec did you use to play the video?  

   

The Media Player in Windows 7 gives this error message:  

   

“\Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.”

How that guy could do all that with a straight face, I'll never know...I know that I couldn't!

 BTW...I think there was one of those in my son's 1976 Pinto Wagon!

Yes, but is the "Turbo-encabulator" an outgrowth of, or a practical application of, principles developed by Rockwell's incredibly versatile "Retro-encabulator", already known to be in development?

 What player or codec did you use to play the video?

  

 The Media Player in Windows 7 gives this error message: 	


 Player 11 works fine.

 Time for a free upgrade?

If the "comcast.net" link does not work, then get YouTube  up on your computer and search for "Turboencabulator".  There are several  versions of this technosmoke'em video.

This is a "cover" (almost verbatim) of the Retro Encabulator. Maybe because I saw it first, I think the Rockwell product is a better presentation.
