Hi,

I'm looking at the recording of the webcast from the RIPE meeting and
having a real problem seeing anything clearly. The size of the images
is too small to read the slides or show the presenter in any great
detail. Effectively the files you can download are excessively large
audio tracks that need to be accompanied by the PDF of the slides.

Is it possible to increase the amount of screenspace used by the
webcast? I'd like to see something taking up at least 4"x3".

I realise that we may want to use a different size for the live
webcasts, but we should offer a decent resolution on the downloaded
version, or a choice of:
 * crappy
 * okayish
 * quite good
 * go and buy a new monitor

Or we could just upload it all to youtube.com?

Incidentally, I found it painful watching a 10 minute presentation.
If we ever do a webcast of our training courses we need to seriously
improve the video quality or people won't get any benefit from it.

Thanks,
