Continuing the thread, "Recommendation for video tutorials: do post-production experiments first<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/leo-editor/W_Rq7jCMoa4> ".
> The default YouTube playback is 480p. Changing to 720p makes a big difference. 720p looks like the best that can be done on YouTube. screencast.com (recommended by Camtasia) looks like a better alternative. Compare the two versions: - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7Bo9OzN5dk - http://www.screencast.com/users/edreamleo/folders/Camtasia%20Studio/media/fa4c1f77-fc94-4b79-9ac2-c09149bd1ea6 On my machine, the screencast.com version is significantly clearer and is shown at the actual recorded size. Please try both tests and report any problems. If none are reported I'll use screencast.com. **Important**: make sure you set the YouTube resolution to 720p by clicking the "gear" icon at the bottom right of the YouTube video. Edward P.S. Experimenting with publishing first has turned out well. It answered a lot of questions, any one of which could have invalidated laboriously-produced content. In particular, experimentation resulted in the following .bat file that opens demo.leo:: python27 launchLeo.py --no-cache --gui=qttabs --window-size=682x1264 ~/demo.leo %* The --window-size=682x1264 argument produces an actual window size (according to Camtasia) of 720x1280. Presumably, this maximizes the quality of the rendered text, the most important consideration when doing Leo videos. The screencast.com version certainly looks great on my monitor. P.P.S This simple test revealed a hum in the audio, apparent with very-high-end headphones, but not with speakers. For now, I'm inclined to let it pass...
