I'm always trying to make the agility videos better on Agility Video Service. I hear that it bothers some people that things are always changing. Maybe the old saying is true, "No pain, no Gain".

I have now bumped up the video encoding to it's maximum compression. Things like "Rate Distortion Optimization" and "Subpixel Refinement Quality". And if you watch the videos from this weekend I think you will agree they look awesome. This comes with a price. The videos will not play on a iPod, AppleTV and just barely in QuickTime.

If you download the video and save it to your computer, you will have to use VLC player to play the videos. In the internet browser the videos still use Flash Player, and I don't think that will ever change. VLC is a free video player available on Windows, Apple, and Linux. It has a nice feature, using the '+' and '-' keys you can slow down and speed up the playback of your video. In laymens terms, this gives you the much coveted "slow motion" playback.
