Thought I'd get that out. Also, it seems the last couple weeks Nick has been
airing no repeats, but I heard that they will stop all togethor, and will
only air it on their digital channel, I hope not.
As far as I know, I'm the only person with the video on a site. If the
video you have is only 15 MB's, I could switch my video with your
better version without wasting space on the server. If you want to
send me the file on an IM program, my AOL Instant Messenger name is
"ObsceneFox" and my Yahoo Messenger name is "spicypizza". Plus on ICQ
I'm 7231926. I only have 56K, and I plan on getting broadband in the
coming months, but until then, you'll have to cope with the slow
speed.
Also, even if you have DSL, you can only upload at 14 or so k a sec, but
download at 148k a sec, unless you have cable or $80+ a month DSL service.
talk to ya later

This is the whole thing, as encoded by TimothyB. Note that it IS encoded
in DivX5 and therefore you will need to download the appropriate codec
for your operating system at http://www.divx.com/ - Also note that if
you are using mplayer under linux, you will have to rebuild mplayer
after you install the new libraries.
Thanks a ton, TimothyB, this looks great. Hopefully no one will yell at
me to take it down, but there shouldn't be too many problems since this
is a low traffic group. Unfortunately if anyone DOES complain, I'll have
to oblige.
I suggest that others put it up as well if they can and announce the
locations to reduce the hit on this server.

That's another factor; what video card do you have? Do you have the
latest drivers for it? If it's an old card that can't do hardware
colorspace conversion, you may be screwed as this requires a LOT of CPU
to do in software.
It takes about 2% of my Pentium III 675Mhz to play the video, on
average, so even a 200Mhz Pentium should be able to handle it if you
have a decent video card and good drivers. Of course, I run Linux so I'm
in a slightly different boat, but the video decoding code should be the
same as it's from the same company.

Space is another factor. I am very low on available disk space, so I
don't plan on installing anything I don't need. I'll wait until I get
my new computer and copy the video to it. Meanwhile, I might be able
to upload your video and the old .mov file to my newest high-MB
website, IN WHOLE! I recently got a new website from Pow Web, and will
be uploading several things to it. I make no promises, but I'm excited
about this new site. I'm glad I have a friend with broadband, because
dialup is no way to upload multiple 15-20MB files.
