Great video worked great!

Thanks for this, it is very useful. The only problem I have is that only some of the videos play. Some play without any problems and the others give me a "Cannot Play Movie" Have any ideas as to what my problem is?

I have done everything the way you describe in your video. The symlink Podcasts does not show up in the browser (but it is ok in Finder). Any idea of what´s wrong?

I keep getting "Safari cannot download this file". The symbolic link is working, does this only work on specific file types?

Awesome. Hopefully, I won't 3% trying this.

Good if you want that for free, but Air Video does it without the hassle.
