Nice Indeed!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I see lots of goodies. Nicely stocked. The fish look happy. Bravo

That 602Zoom is sure doing a good job for you. -For the money, it better.
Good job on the compression. So much better with DivX. I support it. Using a proper player is important. Big difference in quality.
What program were you using to encode to DivX? If you're willing to say.
And download speed of the avi bottomed out at 115Kbps. So not bad.

Thanks, I used virtual dub, I am still learning with the different compression ie with Divx there are 3: 5.0.1, mpg4 fast morion, and mpg4 slowmotion.. not sure what each one is but I am fumblingmy way through it LOL.

the chunks of Cyno you see around were prety much solid over my sand bed a week ago.. thats what 2 fighting conches can do in a week.

I bought the 602 Zoom 1 month ago and for me it does deliver what it should for the money!!! It has everything (well almost) and is feature rich. I can't stop taking pictures whether in Auto modes of manual or making mini movies like StirCrazy... I film my tanks, my cats, the dog :) ...

Lots of interesting stuff in there StirCrazy! Nice...

I think he is fine.. I have seen him once take a nip at my brain but no harm was done.. he picks algae out of the rocks like the Tang mostly, He might be eating some star polyps but I can't be sure at this time if he is or not.

Are you trying to just watch it by left clicking on the link? If so...try RIGHT clicking on the link and selecting SAVE TARGET AS - this will save it to your harddrive and will allow you to watch it without the limitations of bandwidth.

If you are already trying it this way...then other then making sure that you have the most current version of Windows Media Player (or whatever .avi player you are using)...I'm not sure.

HTH...

Actually it gets deeper than that. The avi file is encoded in DivX which means one needs to download and install the DivX codecs for it to work. www.divx.com is where you will find the codecs. And like I said, go with their player. DivX plays so much crisper on their player than say windoze media player or ultraplayer. www.ultraplayer.com is a great little multi player with NO ads.
I have a few DivX encoded movies here if someone would want to see what I'm talking about. I can move some to my ftp server.
pm me.

I have to agree. out of all the media players i have played with, I like divx the best. Seems to have better playback quality for all movies video clips that i have used it for.
