I sometimes watch old TV shows off the net (in either firefox or
opera). In small screen (about 1/8th the screen) they manage to run
smooth. In full screen they're jerky. Seemed like it must be a video
card problem. Then I watched a DVD using PowerDVD. Full screen, much
higher resolution than the other stuff, no jerkiness at all. I would
think it was net bandwidth but even videos that buffer up first have
the same problem. And as I say it can run smooth in small screen and
full screen is just small screen data magnified. This would lead me to
conclude PowerDVD is MUCH more efficient than my browsers. True? Is
there some other way to watch net video that is as efficient as
PowerDVD?
Just trying to get smarter about this stuff.
Thanks,
Tom
