Home Movies

Do you remember the days when your friends and relatives would invite you over for a night of boring home movies? Well, those days are mercifully gone.  To replace them, we are entering the age of  Internet Home Movies! 

Now that nearly everyone has a Web Page and a video camera, its time to start putting that boring footage up on the Web! 

I use a Sharp 8mm ViewCam, but any camera will do.  The degradation of getting down to an appropriate bandwidth will eliminate any need for high resolution. 

I capture the video to my hard drive with an Osprey 100 capture card. I like the Osprey 100 because it has NT 4.0 drivers. 

I encode the Video for Windows (.avi) files with RealPublisher from RealNetworks

If you have a fast modem or a cable modem, you can see my latest video on how  Viagra Can Save the World's Endangered Wildlife.
