In the cards


Recommended Posts

For those who haven't seen the documentary "In the cards", I've found a new link:

Don't tell anyone who whines about copyright ;)

 

EDIT: you can find the link somewhere on my blog under "Varia". (no bad intentions but I don't know if I can say this on the forum - please remove the entire topic if this is also against forum policy) :angry:

Marginally entertaining, I thought. You can tell how much the narrator knows about the game :)

 

On a technical point, I got really distracted by the stop-start effect of running out of buffer (occasionally running into perma-stop and having to move the progress bar back and forth to kickstart it again). Doubtless the problem lies in part in my fairly low bandwidth broadband connection, coupled perhaps with trying it at peak time. I couldn't see how to increase the buffer lead-time before it starts to play - that would have reduced the irritation. (Using IE7 on XP if it makes a difference).

 

In an attempt at overcoming the frustration I tried to download the mp4 whole file (all 175Mb of it) so that I could view it from my local hard drive at leisure, but after a few MB it ends the download, and any attempt to restart it causes it to start downloading from the beginning again.

 

Doubtless some techie out there knows what I should be doing, but I expect that there are too many options to tweak to know what I am doing wrong. As to copyright issues I am no lawyer, but from a commercial viewpoint it seems unlikely that the advertisers would object to as wide a distribution as possible.
