Default Test of video hosted on trackpedia

I made this short video to test it. Opinions?

So at work it was cool but I got a huge pipe at the office. At home, it's too slow for me. I reckon I need lower resolution for streaming.

Are you going to make space/bandwidth available for hosting videos?

Depends on cost really. There are already sites hosting video at the visual resolution. We could host the video at hi-res but it'd be expensive. We'd probably need to charge a small fee to cover it or get an advertiser to pay for it. I don't think it'd be a huge amount of money. The videos seem to be around 7MB a minute for VGA resolution.

Did the video look ok to you? Too slow?

I watched at home with DSL and it was fine. Not slow.

Is it supposed to stream? I'm on Firefox and had to download... waiting now to watch...

Resolution was kick ass in WMP... even at full screen
