    The compression of the mobile versions on reels.creativecow.net

    Posted by Viktor Tornfors on August 8, 2012 at 9:29 am

    Hi!
    I Really like the reels-section of your site. I ditched vimeo for it. The only problem – When played on a mobile unit, like my iPhone, the videos look and sound like crap because of the compression.

    Is it possible to get better quality when playing on a mobile device some way?

    Thanks
    Viktor

    Hello Viktor,

    Thank you for this feedback. We’ll take a look into this. There is a balance between the bitrate, and quality that is at play here. For mobile the thought has been that lower data rates are more important for download speed, but with the ever increasing speed of mobile networks perhaps the time is right to shift into higher quality. We’ll be investigating this matter further in the days ahead.

    Thanks again,

    Abraham
