Bignewbie, I've taken this a few steps further tweeking some of the previous sripting along the way. It now calculates the 'average' connection time (which on my tests made it much more accurate and you don't have to wait till the movie is loaded to see the connection rate) and allows the calculation of the time remaining for the movie to load in full.

Virt: cheers mate! Were the values accurate on your side? I ask because I'm on a 0.5K/s average connection over here (and this shows accurately when I go the the page) but the only other tests I've made are in debugging, and we all know how frail that can be. ;-)
