real media metafiles

Up until a couple weeks ago when I used a metafile to point
to a rm (Real Media) file the Real Media player would open and run
the appropriate video file. About two weeks ago new files put on
the site using this procedure now return the error message
''Requested file not found. The link you followed may be outdated or
inaccurate.''



One can view the source code on the website
(www.environmentalreview.org/video archives)

and there is no obvious difference between the old metafile
pages that work and the new one (Tallis) that returns the error
message. (I have reproduced this error with a subsequent attempt to
use a metafile with a different .rm file)



This occurs both on the website and on my home machine and
occurs regardless of what folders the files are in.

The files on the website are all in the same folder and have
complete paths.



What is this error message trying to tell me?

Thanks

real media metafiles
Your video archive page is throwing 25 errors.

Another thing to check is that you haven't run out of space
on server.

Videos can eat up space in a hurry.
