Can't open in windows either.
If your camera saves as avi, then just try pasting and copying that. It may work.
If not I'm sure someone will come along and advise.

Does it give you the option to 'save as'?
If so, see what options it gives you.

Think I've found the problem.
The file is in a .gp format which was made for mobile devices such as iphones etc. You can play it because you made it and your device has it installed
In moviemaker when you edit it and save the file, it should give you the option of 'save' and 'save as'
If you save it as an avi if you can, and then upload that to your host, replacing the one that's there, it should work.
I can't download and save it from your link, or I could download the converter and do it myself.

Wizking (or anyone else!), I'm about to try to do something similar - camera up near the mirror and two cables, one down to a power source behind the glovebox (already in situ for a satnav) and one to a rear-facing camera in the back. Any tips you might have for hiding the cables would be appreciated. E.g. how did you get the cable under the roof lining? Did you remove any of the trim, such as the covers over the A-pillars?

Didn't remove anything. Camera is up by the rear view mirror. The wire I just pushed into roof lining at windscreen edge (if you try it you will see it just pushes into gap), then went into trim on the pillar, and under the black rubber all the way down to door tread and then under the drivers seat.
