How do you watch videos you buy from Daz Studio?

I just bought Hexagon Revisited - Create Models & Money which contains videos.  But I realized I don't know how to watch the vids or where to find them.  Anyone else knows?

You cannot watch the videos from within either DAZ Studio or Hexagon, Bill. They are intended to be watched independently on a media player application. If you wish to watch them with either DAZ Studio or Hexagon open, you will need to run the graphics applications and the media player simultaneously in separate windows. As for where the videos are stored, try checking the Docs for the product here on the site or from within Studio - it should tell you whhere they are "installed".

I download and install with DIM - I've defined content directory G:/tutorials in DIM that I install all packages with a tag of 'general' to. Then I use VLC to watch them.

Thanks for the info.  I used the Daz Install Manager by habit.  Not sure where the program sent them but I'll look for them.  BTW, using DIM to 'install' did it mess up my Daz program any?  Can I uninstall it with DIM without losing the videos?

Found them, in a direction I would never look for.  Copied the files to my desktop.  I'm going to use DIM to uninstall and hope that will do it.  Thanks again for the help.

Because I usually want my videos stored in my Videos folder (weird huh? :-p), I typically don't use DIM to install them. I go to My Account -> Product Library on the website here and download them manually.

Yeah, JonnyRay, I figured I should have done that as well...afterwards.  It was just force of habit using the DIM.  I moved the files to my Videos folder as well onto my desktop.  All sweet now.
