IRA MV8 final - clean build

This file replaces all earlier versions and should perform as expected.

Keep in mind the file size (about 280 megs) might take a while to load and your internet connection might cause some pauses if you choose to play the file by clicking on the picture. An alternative we recommend is to right-click on the picture (ctrl-click for Mac users) and save the file to your local machine for viewing, replays, frame-by-frame analysis, etc. If you "scrub" through the file quickly (grabbing the playhead marker and moving to left or right), give QuickTime a couple of seconds before you hit the "play" button.

Our sincere appreciation for your patience, and we hope you enjoy the show.
