HiH video experiment


Well, it works. You can view a past Henderson City Council Community Development Committee meeting at the link below if you have Real Player on your computer. If you don’t, it’s free.

Henderson City Council Community Development Committee meeting.

In deference to our readers who are still using dial-up connections, the streaming video has been sized for 56k modems. The picture quality for this particular video has also been affected by the projection of the word document at the front of the room (which caused the aperture of the camera to constrict) and the piece-of-junk tripod we were using. You may notice that the picture is far from level.

We’ve since found the good tripod.

The sound quality was far better than we expected; however, since our digital video camera has no capacity for an external microphone, that’s as good as it’s going to get.

The maximum time a digital video tape lasts is one hour, hence the reason the entire meeting is not recorded.

Home in Henderson hopes to bring you expanded video coverage in the future.
