Highland and Underhill

I'm sure many of you get the emails as well, but last night I had an email from Highland promoting a new online webcast. All of it was good, even the "info-mercial" aspects, but I especially enjoyed the interview of Roy Underhill and getting to see where the master lives, as it were.
Just my opinion, but this is 40 minutes well spent.

Is it jerky or is it just me.
It seems like it is a bunch of snapshots pasted together. The sound is smooth but the picture is jerky.

Ditto! There were long periods of the same image.
Methinks my ISP bandwidth/data rate is too small.
What frustrated me was the lack of a time line, and down loaded portion indication.

I watched some (about 18 minutes) of this video without problem; my ISP is Comcast.
Smooth on my end

It was like watching TV on my end. I've found sometimes that if a video starts off jerky you can pause it for awhile which lets the buffers fill up and then it will run pretty smooth. I watched about 20 minutes at a time without problems. I only paused it then because I had to do something else. So try loading it, hitting the pause for awhile and then running it.

Yep! that did it. Must be my video card. I'm on high speed internet and it works fine on my wife's newer laptop. As soon as I click HD off the video moved smoothly.
Interesting!
