Woohoo! Video!

Video does not load in chrome browser, had to revert to IE8, eek.

What kind of hardware/Software do you use to record/edit the Video show?

Just checked and it looks like the video is still converting... says it has an hour to go. Guess I should have waited to post it.

[Mumbodog]

Its playing fine in IE8

so far....

[TechGuy]

The low quality version (used mostly for iPods) just finished converting and it plays in Chrome for me... I'll bet the high-res version (linked in post #1) will work tomorrow.

In the mean time, here's the low-quality version! http://techsupportguysmall.blip.tv/

We only had one major issue while recording this episode -- Brian lost his connection for a few minutes, but I think the edit is pretty seamless... look around 3 minutes 20 seconds... Dan's guitar suddenly appears!

Strange Link #1 works in IE but not Chrome.

Low res works in Chrome.

[TechGuy]

I agree -- that's very strange. I guess IE8 uses the original video that I uploaded while Chrome uses the one that blip.tv converts? *shrugs* I just hope it works in the morning.

Hello folks, mumbodog and techguy . I meant to point out in here as i know you had alot of talk about the smartphone market that last week i purchased a Motorola Droid. I figure id state this as if you would like to possibly do a review of the Android smartphones id be happy to be the guinea pig with the review unit .
