Poll: Test Your Online Photo Story Viewing Capabilities

[PapaJohn]

One or two of these links were in previous posts, but here they are together
as a polling test...

I saved the same Photo Story 3 project 4 times, each time to a different
quality level, going from DVD level to high definition 1080. They are all on
the mydeo streaming services... capable of delivering them as fast as your
internet connection supports. If they don't play smoothly, it's your
connection or computer.

The stories are in widescreen mode, made with custom profiles... it runs
1:22 in duration... the first 20 seconds of the audio was a waterfall but
the picture doesn't show it, so you may think it's static or a problem. I
should have used something else, or shown the waterfall first.


1 - HiDef 1080 level - 1920x1080 Quality 100

2 - HiDef 720 level - 1280x720 Quality 100
http://www.mydeo.com/videorequest.asp?XID=12533&CID=50362

3 - HiDef 720 level - 1280x720 Quality 97
http://www.mydeo.com/videorequest.asp?XID=8674&CID=50358

4 - DVD level - 852x480
http://www.mydeo.com/videorequest.asp?XID=8523&CID=51042


I'm curious - what level you can play smoothly?? I can play all 4 smoothly
when the files are on my laptop hard drive, but the streaming files play
differently depending on which computer I'm using and where I am. For
example my laptop does a bit better at home with my wireless router and
cable connection than it does at my Barnes & Noble with it's wireless AT&T
service.

==============================
They seem pretty much the same to me,
the 4th one may be the slightest bit jittery
in a couple of places but not enough to
complain about.

I just did a speed test on my cable connection:
