Why do I get a warning "Cannot find the file index.html or one of its components..." when I open it?

I don't know, but you can ignore it. Netscape 4.76 does not give that message.

Some of the movies are a bit too big for my screen, so the Quicktime buttons are off the bottom

Maximise the space available by putting away the browser toolbar and location bar, etc. Or, call up the movies by filename, rather than using the browser.

Sometimes, movies run very jerkily, and many dates are skipped over

That's something to do with caching and the speed of the CD drive, I think. Play the movie a second time and it should be OK. Or, if you have the disc space, copy the CD onto your hard drive, and read it from there.
