OT; Is this why Apple says Blue Ray who

Co’mon now. Don’t be like that.
It doesn’t cost money or require toys. All you need is a computer. And I’m not picking on you personally. There’s like 4 or 5 people in this thread who’ve also never seen this before. Frankly, I find it a bit weird.

Sean, It cost money to buy the latest toys..
Try playing those streams at even 800kbps on a cable hookup and a G4 dual gig with 1gig of ram with out hickups…. it doesn’t work here..nope … and the 1,700kbps just turns into a slide show with audio.
But on my Dec 07- 2.4 MacBook pro it works flawlessly… and is great to see it work so sweet..
New tech is great…. when it works even better…….when you can afford to buy it better yet… and when you can sell it to the client at a profit thats the best tech… and yes it can take years for this to happen.
I am amazed and with their free uploads, I should be able to convince some of my more Dinosaur clients
to consider it….. and hopefully get my new HPX500 real busy so I can buy more new toys.. -

It about MORE then just the toys.
I have a 2 month old 17″ MBP with Hi-Res display (1920×1200) and I get LOTS of choking, and like I said before I have the fastest internet connection available in my part of the city (1.3) the largest city in the state.
While the video does look good for web video, I still noticed plenty of pixilation at times.
In NO way would I consider the end all web solution you clam it is.

Zane,
I found “Veloxic” thru a Streaming Media newsletter advert and asked for more info, because I need to learn this streaming video thing.. The next day I was surprised when a senior tech called from England to inquire as to what my anticipated needs could be. He then emailed me the link that I posted in this thread for my comments. I emailed the Brit back saying that I had also shared his link on the cow for comments from this herd and he replied that the link was not there official demo. You need to go to their web site for the official demo.. The problem with this link is that it is not fully “propagated” to all the servers in their network, which means that some locals could experience the hicups / choking you have experienced.
Check out their web site demo to see if you have the same problem….
“In NO way would I consider the end all web solution you clam it is.” Nobody is claiming (or claming) anything…. It is just an example that I thought this herd would be interested in knowing about….

Really because the way you keep going on and on about it, you sure are acting like that.

Something’s wrong with your machine. My parents have a Mac Mini G4 (not an Intel, a frickin G4) and I’ve watched fullscreen 480p Apple Trailers over there several times.

[Sean ONeil] “Something’s wrong with your machine.”
I assure you there is NOTHING wrong with my machine it runs PERFECT. It is the fact that the video is from the the internet. I am betting that if I were to take my machine to a location with a better internet connection it would play fine. The internet available in america is OVERALL at crappy speeds. THe ONLy way to have a good web video solution in the US is to have it capable at playing fine at LOW internet speeds. Ether that or convince all the internet companies to upgrade the speed in all locations.
If you had fully red my point I said that my internet speed is s1.3 tops and that that is the highest I can get in my part of town and I live in the largest city in my state.
In NO way is it the computer. It is the crappy internet speeds available in america. So unless you can deliver that high of quality video with out buffering or rebuffing LOTS of people in this country are going to have problems.
