The
View from the Back - 2003 Videos
![]()
For the year-end 2003 Colin and I are offering both his VHS video
compilation and my in-car videos compiled into one DVD. Click here to download
the order form: DVDoffer.pdf
These videos were shot from a Panasonic
GR-DVX4 digital camera mounted on the rollover bar of Marcus's car at circuits
where the owner's permission could be obtained. The sequences were subsequently
transferred by DV connector (FireWire) to a Sony Vaio lap top computer
and pre-installed Sony capture software. Streaming of the video from my
web site is courtesy of Oplayo's ultra-light decode video encoding technology,
invented in Finland. Check out www.oplayo.com
There are versions of each video at
225 or 300 kbps and at 36 kbps; the speed of your connection is identified
by bandwidth recognition and the most suitable file served to you automatically.
There is not much detail if you watch it on a 56K modem... so try it on
the office LAN where you'll get the 225 or 300 version.
For 2003 I am using a microphone variously located in the helmet or in the engine bay, so the sound effects are a bit better than last year.
The original video files in .avi format are too big to upload to my website (and I would run out of storage space in a nanosecond). I hope that parts will be on the Clubmans video compilation from Colin Jackson at the end of the year. Did you buy last year's? If not, email him at colin@peugeotmail.co.uk
