GLF Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 First I would like to thank all of you for becoming a supporting member and helping to support this website. I did not have much to offer, but everyone here still became a supporting member. Thank you! I currently am working on adding another feature to the website that only supporting members will be able to use. The new feature is a video player, and I will be hosting the videos. I am keeping this private for the supporting members because of the costs involved with hosting the videos, and bandwidth that is used by members viewing them. Some of you may have viewed the Capt. Chip Klein video in the instructional video section. I uploaded the videos to youtube and embedded them in a post. Youtube limits videos to 10 minutes in length, which is why there are 8 videos. This was a major pain in the rear to break it down into 10 minute segments and upload them to youtube. Then I had to put them all in a post. Currently I have 4 videos of the guest speakers from the Salmon Clinic. Each speaker spoke for approximately 1 hour. What would you prefer to see when watching videos, two 30 minute videos, or a 1 hour video?
anthonyyost Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I would prefer the 30 minute lengths, then if I have time I can watch two.
Paulywood Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Either works for me Mike, but the 30 minute ones might be better if they aren't to much trouble.
Rayman96 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 That's a pretty good feature for sure!I don't have high speed service as of yet, so for now won't matter.In the future, would download and watch at my leisure.I would say one hour length would work ok for me.

They have to be viewed online.
Hotdog71 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 It's a great idea Mike. I agree with Tony, I like the 30 min videos. That way if you're short on time you don't have to watch the first half again, unless you want too of course.
Rayman96 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 If I have to view it live and am not able to capture the video, then in all likelihood will not be of interest to me.
Hoosier_Steelheader Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 The 30 minute videos are great for me. Would they be available in .mobi? I like checking in on my phone and that would be a sweet deal when I'm riding somewhere, or stuck in port because of a storm, or shopping with the wife etc...thanks JC

GLF Posted March 21, 2010 Author Posted March 21, 2010 I have a couple of people testing this feature now. A small issue has been discovered and needs to addressed. Once I have everything working correctly, I will put it in place.
RONDAYVOO Posted March 21, 2010 Posted March 21, 2010 I agrre with the others on the 30 min. Thanks for takeing the time to do all this work
