Live from the Phoenix LODRS

It started snowing again here about 6 a.m. and has not stopped. Got over 4 inches on the ground now. I live abut 90 miles northwest of Firebird and the weather says it is moving in from the west heading east. I do hope you get this in, but be safe.

Have they ever had a race stopped for dust and rain on the same weekend before this?

Yes, Novadude. Happens more than you think.

Bob,

I'm also reducing the quality from 1920x1080i at 17 mbits/s down to 640x360p at 1 mbits/s. If I encoded the videos in 720p at 3 mbits/s or higher they would look even better, but they would be way too big to upload through my phone. The H264 codec is an awesome codec.

You can also hook the camera straight to your HD TV through an HDMI cable (sold separately.)

When I get home I might encode some in 720p and upload them.

Even with the reduction they are very very good, great camera for sure. There are only 8 on ebay so I am going to follow them and see if I can snipe one. Thanks for the info and help.

Here's the ones I was talking about:

http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=hdr....c0.m270.l1313

Looks like he has sold quite a few and that he adds a new item as soon as one ends so he doesn't have too many on there at one time.

Also, I said I reduced them to 1 kbits/s that should read 1 mbits/s.

Wonder why 1320go on my phone doesn't show Firebird as connected?
