Devious Experiments with a  Truly Passive Greenhouse Movie as HD download

About the Truly Passive Greenhouse

The Truly Passive Greenhouse

The problem: All greenhouses in a cold climate need heat.  So they consume energy and require human discipline.  At the same time, it is possible that on a sunny day, a greenhouse can get hot enough to kill everything inside.  

The solution: We have a plan to create a greenhouse that requires no heat, and will never overheat.  Mostly, we will use the heat from the summer to heat the structure through the winter.  And if we have a moment of excess heat we will passively store it and save it for later - with no harm to the plants, all with no need for human discipline.

The Greenhouse is Built, and the Movie is complete!

This file should not have a .jpg file extension.  It seems to work fine if you manually change it to .mp4

Sorry, I gave it the wrong extension.  Try renaming it so it ends with .mp4

What kind of phone do you have?

Are you able to play other mp4 files?

Is your internet pretty good?

JR,

I am looking at a report on my end.  It says you have attempted to download it exactly five times.  And all five times you got 0% of the file.  

Do you have space on your phone for such a big file?

Yeah I got 93 GB on my phone. And every time it said the download was complete. I'm just going to have to bring my laptop into town and try and get it downloaded that way we'll see what happens.

In  that case, it sounds like your phone is pretty stupid.

They all are! It could also be my reception at the house.

Video stops at 1:47:29. Any attempt to restart goes back to the beginning. What do you suggest?

It sounds like you don't have the complete file.  Is your file 2,802,142,490 bytes?

I also own this movie.  I just re-downloaded it.
The file is 2.82 gigs.
720p.
It is a complete movie, playing all the way through, for me.

I wonder what the difference is between your situation and mine, David.
What kind of system and application are you using to play the file?
Can you delete both your files and try again from scratch with a reliable internet connection?
