Anybody tried it ?

Looks to have greater potential than you tube due to the increased definition and flexibility with the video formats and file sizes etc.

Max frame size is x4 Youtube 640x480 ,frame rates are 12-30fps and it supports all popular video formats except flash.

Looking at some of the material on there it looks like the uploaded videos aren't up to full resolution but some are really good. Watch a 90 minute program on there this afternoon.

I'm encoding a 17 minute video pushing it to the published limits to see what is lost in translation. The video is part of an on going project and would brighten a dull day with the Butterflies and the cheeky Dragonfly at the end.

You might have seen the Dragonfly clip before but the quality was lost on the site I used so It'll be interesting to see how this turns out.

There are quite a few BB clips on there including international show.
For instance if you didn't see last years Chantelle in German BB then I think I saw 3 or 4 of the shows on there.


Have you used the service ? If yes what were you impressions ?

THIS is my test video. It has lost a bit in translation but the larger frame size makes viewing easier. And you not limited to 10 minutes.
But the processing time takes a lot longer than You-Tube and they are slow.

Video was created to fit as close to the maximum published frame size and encoded for maximum quality using DivX 6.4.

Do you think it's any better or worse than You-Tube ?
Have a search for other videos before drawing your conclusions.
