    Costa Rican Cumbia - QuickTime (recommended for Mac users)

    Costa Rican Cumbia - Real Media (recommended for Windows users & also works on a Mac)


    (Please note that there is a known problem with Internet Explorer for Windows playing QuickTime videos. If you use Windows, please try the Real Media video. There are other video formats we could support, such as MPEG-4 and Windows Media Player. MPEG-4 is often used to play videos on iPods. We can also make available Real Player files that use a lower transfer rate and/or a lower frames per second setting, which might be useful if you have a dial up connection - although the current Real Media file has been set up so that it should work on a dial up connection. Some computer systems interpret .ram files as a download, but they are not. We are working to improve the functioning of both video formats. If you would like to see videos on ExploreDance.com in other formats or you have comments about the formats that are available at present, please email me at editor@exploredance.com - Thanks, Robert Abrams)
