I've upgraded to a DSL line 8 times faster than what I had and been
preoccupied with video related stuff. I've put some older synth special
effects demos to video, MOTM Beach & Sea, Sueprnova Autumn Thunder Storm,
and Andromeda Liquids. MOTM Diesel Train and Moog V Orchestra should be
done in a few days. These were intended for youtube, but within the past
few days they've changed their software to no longer allow stereo flv files
to pass by unmodified to their site, so it's all lo-fi mono on youtube (same
goes for google video). So I put them on Twango. Link my video page here:

http://www.twango.com/search/elhardtTwango is one of a rare few that also allows downloading of videos onto you
PC with a download link right below the video. No need to try to find some
criptic temp video file in your internet temp folder, drag it out, and
rename it, as you need to do with youtube and others who always what you to
go to their sites to watch a video more than once. If you collect videos on
your computer, for flv files you'd need a flash flv player. One is here for
the PC:

http://video.google.com/playerdownloadAnybody who wants to create quality stereo video files playable on a free
video hosting youtube-like service needs to encode their own files into flv
files before uploading. That riva link above also provides an flv encoder.
Most sites apparently look to see if the file is a flash file, and if so
they don't modify it. Even though many sites support stereo from other
video formats, after they recompress them, they sound awful.
