Lots of sky and sea. It's big (be warned! 35.7 MB) and I tried to interfere as little as possible:

Edit: meant codec, not code

What codec did you use to record that video? I can't view it. ONly thing I don't have installed is QuickTime, is it that?

Windows media player should work fine. If you're on a mac I don't know 😕

Used FRAPS to record and windows movie utility to make into .wmv file (high quality). Nothing special.

I tried recording a video using the inbuilt FS flight recorder and then viewing it in WMP. It wouldn't let me play it saying I didn't have the correct codec Dont Know

I think the inbuilt FS utility does not record "video" per se. It just stores aircraft type, location, speed, position etc and "replays" it recreating the scenery each time. That's why the videos are usually small and you can't see other traffic, flaps are not always right etc.

I used Creative Media Source Player and the video works fine. No problem.

By the way, lovely video, Bindolaf! So peaceful... 👏
The ATR 72 500 is such a great airplane. I'm looking forward for more videos 😉

I know my reply is a little late but man that video was outstanding with all the great music, shots, subtitles etc...

In otherwords, Well done Bindolaf. I'm sure you've made a few guys like me scared to make some more videos.
