You may be right on that.  The movie capability is of more interest to
me.
 
I just discovered that wi-fi (wireless) is NOT ENABLED on both my W7
and W10 PCs!  That's a surprise, and maybe that's my problem.  They
are different wireless PCI  adapters of course , being on different
PCs.  How do I enable same?  I tried, and did not succeed.
 
My PCs are cat5-connected to my Verizon WIRELESS router, whatever
problem that might be causing.  
watchatink?
