I've been told that the video clips I'm making cannot be viewed on a Mac even with
WMP for Mac installed?

The sound apparently plays, but no visual.

Here is a short 1mb clip

Anyone got any ideas what I am doing wrong as I'd like Mac users to be able to view as well.

Try:

VLC here

or

MPlayerX here

Edited to add: OK, tried both, both do sound but no picture as you said. I'm out of ideas...

Plays fine for me using WMP, both sound and picture. Tried it with MPlayerX and only get sound. I'm running Panther 10.3.3 with QuickTime pro. Not sure if the Pro adds any abilities to play WMP files? Why not save it as a quickTime .mpg? I hate watching movies in WMP.

can't see it on my mac. with vlc get the following error message.
main: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `WMV3'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.
