FLV videos deleted Options

[Foxx]

We were experimenting with .flv streaming video. The results were too poor to consider officially streaming BSoD episodes. Recently the .flv test episodes have been deleted. We HIGHLY suggest downloading BSoD episodes. The xvid is very good quality with clear readable text for devices that have a somewhat decent size display, at leat 4 inches across, like a PDA. If you have a smaller screen, say an Ipod or Zune, or plan on using a CRT TV as a display (or LCD with composite source) use the higher bitrate .mp4. Although the MP4 is a bigger filesize, it has higher bitrate to compensate for playing on a smaller LCD that can cause fuzzy text in the screencaps. Although some episodes have crappy screencaps, thats something we couldnt avoid.

If you want to see BSoD via streaming video, check Vimo and Youtube. We have been 'un'officially uploaded there. There is a topic in General Discussion on the fourms, if you found BSoD somewhere, let us know so we can add to the list.

BSoD is Creative Commons, and Open-Source. If you want to help seed BSoD to other streaming services, just let us know where you will be uploading it so we can list it, and by all means feel free! Just remember, do not clip and re-edit episodes. You can chop the episodes up into individual parts to fit on places like youtube, but dont remaster other peoples segments without asking them (dont ask BSoD, ask the author of the segment).
