testing...(1st attempt at posting an internet movie)
 

Seeing as it's snowing outside, I thought I'd give this a try...
Let me know if it works. :smile:

I liked it! :cool:

Nice shots. Really good zoom on tha camera.

What kind of camcorder was that Mitch ? ... Excellent picture quality

When those Dory's grow too big for your tank I will be happy to adopt one from you :razz:

to bad its in quick time :neutral:

:eek: those tangs are fat!!

WOW, that was awsome. Great Job

Nice sebae :mrgreen:

You weren't kidding about those leathers being out of hand :eek:

Monsters.

Thanks! :smile:

This is the camera : http://www.panasonic.ca/english/audi...er/pvgs200.asp

I got an email from someone saying that all they got was a blank screen. Is that because of the quicktime format?

Which other format would be better to use? I'm not sure yet what's involved in changing formats.

...and yeah, the tangs are getting a little too big for the tank, IMO...for fun, the big one goes to the surface, gets an air bubble, releases it near the bottom..... :neutral: ...then chases it to the top... :rolleyes:
Kinda like watching the elephants at the zoo swaying back and forth from boredom.... :confused:

I think ideally AVI would be best.

Looks good that zoom is amazing.

Quinn,
Aren't AVI files quite large?

Mitch,
That was beautiful. I love watching other peoples' tanks - it's actually relaxing. When I look at mine I often end up thinking about logistics and maitenance and upgrades :frown:

Fish, it depends on the encoding. I tried with full frames (uncompressed) and the 7 meg MOV went to ~200 megs. However using a decent codec fixes that nicely. With RealVideo you might be able to get the video even smaller but it's not a popular format.

So, for people without Quicktime (hope you don't mind Mitch):

http://www.ckxu.com/quinn/1staquariummoviexvid.avi - 5 megs - Xvid codec, if you don't have it, get the Nimo codec pack from http://afreecodec.com/codec_pack.php before attempting to view the movie.

http://www.ckxu.com/quinn/1staquariummoviempegavi.avi - 15 megs - Shouldn't have to download any codecs other than the ones that you have with WMP.

I recommend downloading the movie and then viewing, not streaming.

Not at all...except when I run the AVI version, the quality isn't as good.
I prefer the quicktime version.

Mitch

Yes there is a slight decrease in quality. I only tried two of about a dozen codecs included with my encoding software, others might have produced better results.

Teevee
You had better study up on those codecs hate to see your quality slip like this.

Sorry to let you down Monzino. :cry:
