works gravy for me, Explorer with Windows XP.

question< I love watching the vids, but the intro with the TGR logo IMO is too long and is usually at least half the clip. Can you guys shorten that up or put a watermark instead for new clips? that would be tits.

Thanks for the feedback- This series, unfortuantely, requires that format. We'll be releasing a number of more significant production series in the near future.... We're pretty stoked on this!

I gots no sound.... Explorer, windows XP

**Crinkle** · 05-17-2006, 03:12 PM

i am a douche, didn't check for sound, was playing other music at the time.

Squatch · 05-17-2006, 03:13 PM

Firefox, Max OS X

Video works, but the sound does not.

**milton** · 05-17-2006, 03:17 PM

Video works great, loads almost instantly. All the controls work fine.

I'm not getting any sound however.

WinXP Pro, w/ latest windoze updates.

This series actually has no audio.... sorry.

Hey webguy - have you had problems with your server the past two days?

Or make the clip about 5x longer...

**MassLiberal** · 05-17-2006, 03:31 PM

No sound, looks great!

**dbp** · 05-17-2006, 04:13 PM

Works in IE5, IE6, Opera, Firefox (Windows). I guess the version of Flash would be more important than anything though.

Looks good. I think the whole world is going to .flv

**edg** · 05-17-2006, 04:17 PM

A-OK in Safari v2.0.3

Works fine for me. Few pauses during the intro. Just don't dig the black.

**Skis4Fun** · 05-17-2006, 05:56 PM

Works fine. Loads quickly.

Internet Explorer 6
Windows XP SP2
Yahoo DSL Express 1.5 Mbps download speed

You should also consider asking about loading time & ISP/download connection speed as I would imagine that dialup folks would have a different experience.

Since a lot of people have broadband connections, consider providing 1 or 2 options that allow for larger viewing sizes (full screen window and 1/2 screen window viewing sizes would be good) for those people as well.

Here is an example of a site that provides 3 different clip speeds for the top 3 finishers in each World Cup race.
http://www.sport1.at/coremedia/gener...d=3244652.html

I don't speak German but have been provided with the following instructions:

This is an Austrian site so here are some translations of the German words: Skialpin-Herren = men, Skialpin-Damen = women, Abfahrt = downhill, RTL = giant slalom.

1. Select the disclipline from the middle left box DISZIPLIN: i.e. Skialpin-Herren

2. Scroll the center box AUSTRAGUNGSORT / THEMEN to select the race.

3. Scoll the right box CLIPS to select the racer.

4. Select the clip speed from the upper left box WÄHLEN SIE IHREN PLAYER: Three different speeds for clips: Standleitung = 500 Kbps, Kabel ADSL = 200 Kbps, Modem = 40 Kbps.

Here is an OLN site that provides skiing/snowboarding/freestyle clips http://www.olntv.com/nw/article/view...=nwArticle.tpl

out of curiosity, why?

**bakers_dozen** · 05-17-2006, 06:54 PM

pretty good vids. Needs sound though

or music

bc · 05-17-2006, 07:01 PM

Stupid "administrative privileges" issue to upgrade my version of flash at work. I can install most apps, but that one they must have security concerns about. I'm sure the vids look great, though....

**tgr pro** · 05-17-2006, 07:37 PM

you should still be able to download that .mp4 from the link in the upper right corner....

Cool, that is a lot nicer than downloading the .flv or whatever. Some of the mp4 links seem to be broken though - either not found on the server or have an .aspx extension.

Yeah, that works for me for the Haines vid (nice!), but not for the others.

Always great to have a right-click/save-target-as option. I don't know about others, but I find myself downloading large files like videos when I have high bandwidth available because I'm often in rural areas with only dial-up or no service at all and it's great to have something to watch/listen to.
