    Don't hold the camera! You need a TP like the one I have...

    That sweet little baby goes anywhere and wraps around anything so you can take pics from any angle... :D It wouldn't work for your big camera, but you do the TLVs on a little one, don't you?

    Tim, this is an awesome video:

    http://timsdd-timelapse.blogspot.com/2008/04/pilot-to-co-pilot-timelapse-video-of.html

    However, while the service you used may rock, their bandwidth is harsh. My suggestion is to download flv-recorder, and capture the video yourself once encoded, then upload to Youtube, use their bandwidth. Much better user experience.

    Mmmm... brownies...

    oy! a trade off...darn & it :(

    so by harsh you mean it had to buffer 17 times throughout the video? anyone else have the same problem??

    you know, I have tried the FLV approach...nothing I seemed to do made YT less chunky...no matter what I threw down @ YT, different file formats, resolution size, video codecs...they all sucked the ballz :mad:

    thanks for the suggestion though, I'll keep looking if CM is bogi (plural of bogus)

    Wow, you're right... much worse that I expected:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5yEvgmbqXE

    I was thinking that with it already being an flv, there would be nothing to convert... hmmm...

    Do you have your own hosting anywhere that could support the bandwidth? Or does Blogger allow you to upload your own files? It does, doesn't it? Could you host the video file yourself, using a CC player maybe?

    Edit: Ok, I know both why it is looking so nice, and why it's taking so long where it is hosted... it's barely compressing it, and looks like you wind up with an 18MB flv file. That's going to be slow loading regardless of where you host it. Hm.

    Edit #2: This explains why the time lapse videos do worse, btw:

    With time lapse, every frame is a cut.

    Edit #3: Ok, just because I always allow myself to get distracted when I shouldn't, I started playing with it. I re-encoded the flv file, cut it to 240x180, a framerate of 12, a bitrate of 360, an audio bitrate of 16, and an audio sampling rate of 11025 Hz. The resulting file was 4,568KB, and I uploaded that video to YT. How's this look?
