Remember it in beta, so problem is likely to arrive. Just give it sometime, sometime changes can be for the better or not.

Bad new player!
The "Larger" function (for those of us who don't have a star) is worse now!
Compare:

BEFORE


AFTER


It's almost like this "new" player takes the video and makes the image 239857258 times sharper.

Here it is not resized:


-_- I want the old player back.



Hmm...........that's not true, even for star supporters, certain videos despite being in H.264 quality looks really pixelted and sharp, like the picture u show. It depends on the quality of the videos being encoded.


I'm not so sure if you get what I mean. I mean that the new videos, probably encoded and compressed some other way that obviously saves space, take away all this quality. I'm not really talking about the player. It's the video compressions that are being a real headache.

Are all the new videos getting a major compression? I mean, the older ones look really good, but the newer videos seem to have decreased in quality (especially since it's too sharp)...

So adobe released their latest version of flash player 9 (update 3) with h.264 support, meaning star supporters will now have access to even higher quality videos!

whats h264? ask wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264 basically its a better way to compress videos, and its what apple quicktime uses.

to start watching stuff:
1. you must be a star donater
2. download and install the latest flash player here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
3. go to any video page, click on the "h264" link below the video. it should play!
4. if theres no h264 link, it means that its either an older video that's still being h264-encoded, or you arent a star supporter.

post comments, bugs, etc below. thanks!

edit:
to all the people who cant see the video but can hear sound, can you guys post screenshots? also try hitting the Larger link, and lemme know if it works!


you are one smart man...
