Try placing the path to you java\bin directory in you path variable. In order for DOS to find an executable, the path to that executable needs to be in your PATH variable.

you must first download the java runtime environment (JRE) from java.sun.com. When you install it, it should automatically update the PATH environment variable to point to the installed JRE.

If that doesnt work, you will have to edit the videothen.bat so that "java" is replaced with "c:\program files\java\j2re1.4.1\bin\java".

if that doesnt help, drop me a line at greg@alcorgrp.com and i'll see if i can help.
