I am also running Adobe Reader 10, version 10.0.1. So, that's not it. I'm on the 32 bit version though.

Adobe Reader 10 (10.0.1) and the 32 bit version also, but I have the same error:
"Acrobat has encoutererd an error while playing this media clip"

[GunChleoc]

Nach eil iad ag ràdh dè seòrsa error?

[bsuibhne]

I uninstalled Adobe Reader 10 and installed Version 9.4 now the files work for me.

Nach eil iad ag ràdh dè seòrsa error?

That's all the message I've got.

I uninstalled Adobe Reader 10 and installed Version 9.4 now the files work for me.

Oh, feuchaidh mi a-nochd am bi e a' dèanamh.

[poor_mouse]

With Adobe Reader 9.4 it really works!
Mòran taing!

Warning to learners:
This book may point out more errors in your pronunciation than you ever imagined existed.
This is a good thing, but it stings the pride somewhat...

[GunChleoc]

Just think of it as an opportunity to learn

Mar a thuirt Eric Morecambe (Camas na Mara), "I'm making all the right sounds - just not necessarily in the right order"...

I'm curious, Niall, what exactly did you spot you're doing right now that you weren't before?

[Níall Beag]

Oops... meant to reply sooner, but I needed a quick reread of the book to check up exactly what I was thinking about. And then I didn't reread any of the book until Saturday.

1) I had always thought that the slender/broad distinction held even for weak N, L, R.

2) I had no concept of "grinning" O and U, and my ao wasn't a grinning U (although I'm still not 100% clear on where grinning O arises).

Those are the only ones I spotted, but maybe I was skimming too quickly, as I have a feeling there's more....

1) I had always thought that the slender/broad distinction held even for weak N, L, R.

If you check p. 366, it does hold for weak r. Aren't l, n, r fun. Sometimes I wish there were still 4 of each, even if I had to wrap my tounge around additional sounds

2) I had no concept of "grinning" O and U, and my ao wasn't a grinning U (although I'm still not 100% clear on where grinning O arises).

To my German ears they sound quite close to ü and ö, which are completely different sounds though
