Awesome; good test case for VP8 support. I'm a bit puzzled as to why they don't also provide a lower-resolution, smaller version though. The download sizes are huge!

1 GB for 39 min! Maybe I should give Michael a call...

video size is big, streaming is too slow to watch, quality is not good either comparing to youtube, not to mention this is supposed to be HD.

I did contact Michael about it, and his answer was that there is not much doc about the encoding parameters, so it's difficult to set the bar right.

Also, he considers the compromise between some videos being very big (when the cameraman was moving a lot) and some much smaller to be "reasonable".
