[1] By the way, this is absurdly high resolution for video, not even HDTV has a resolution this high (720p60: 1280x720 1080i50: 1920x1080), let alone PAL (square pix: 768x576) or NTSC (square pix: 720x540).
Thank you! ** Most training videos I've seen have been 320x200 or lower. ** The one thing that Sun could do to improve this particular situation would be to harness the scaling power of the video chip in the DTU to offload the microsparc. This would allow full-screen/full-motion video, but at lower resolutions than the desktop. This is how it works on PCs too... just because your screen-res is absurdly high (eg: I use 1920x1440 at home on a Viewsonic G810) doesn't mean that's what the resolution is of the "full-screen" video you watch on it. Unfortunately, adding this (hardware scaling on the video chip) feature to the Sun Ray's protocol would likely require a significant amount of re-engineering an a full release increment of SRSS. -Kevin _______________________________________________ SunRay-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/sunray-users
