Just about to put my new vid up (the compressed version) please tell me if it looks rubbish on youtube... by rubbish internet connection will not let me watch in HD on youtube :(

RR - you really want to be shouting at your ISP if you can't watch YT in reasonable quality. If you're near a big town, there's no real excuse.
 
ok here are my speeds
ping: 16ms
download: 27.17 Mbps
upload: 3.74 Mbps

Wow! I am so jealous!

We have just come off the phone to sky, they got us to unplug stuff, plug it back in and even take the socket apart at the wall. they are now running remote tests for 24 hours cos they couldn't work out what the problem was... Do you think they are actually testing it or just bogging us off for 24 hours?

Well I would just wait the 24 hours of it doesn't get any better call back then cancel and get different Internet if you can

This.

Has your speed dropped recently, or has it always been like this?

And please tell me you're not one of those people who switch off their router overnight.....

Have you been on this site to try to find out what's wrong: http://broadband.diagnostics.sky.com/

If it is a recent thing, then hopefully they should be able to sort it. Sometimes I know that the "profile" of the line (i.e. the speeds it's set up to allow through) get a bit screwed and need resetting, which is hopefully what they will do.

If they can't get you back to where you were, then whinge and moan at them to get out of the contract - although if it is actually the line rather than just Sky's problems, this may not always work, as regardless of who you go with, they generally use the same bits of wire to get to your house.....

And just to rub salt into the wounds, here are my stats with BT, according to Speedtest.net:

Ping: 15m/s
Download: 75.95 Mbps
Upload: 8.22 Mbps
 
Is that fibre optic? I want your internet!!!!

I remember doing a speed test a few months ago and it was much higher than it is now, but cant remember the exact figre, I will have to look on facebook I think cos I think i put it on there as a reply to my friends post comparing speeds, and mine was faster than his.

Doubt it is now! It is a recent problem. For the last two months we have had trouble getting programmes from the on demand service and streaming films from amazon and netflix. Just didnt realise just how bad it had got!

It's BT Infinity 2, so fibre to the cabinet at the end of the road (<100m) then copper to the house.

You're not at / near the end of your contract are you? Could be a good bargaining point for going elsewhere.....
 
With regards to T'Bikers comment on profiling- this is quite a common practice in the industry, it's designed to tinker your line to the best service based on your needs. You could ask them about if the profile has been changed. Prepare for the 1st line support person to be confused, or bamboozle you with info :)
 
not sure what camera u are using, but 720p/30fps
then 3gb file for a 11 min video

I d rather render 1080p (obviously depends on cam) and have lower bitrate when encoding. and a smaller file.

my 10 min vids are still around 1gb i think. and i don t believe i am losing quality compared to you.
(you tell me)

on the other hand. i only do all that because of slow rendering speed and storage (need a better PC)

internet in this country is insane. 1 gb don t take 3 minutes to upload (if at all) and have had bittorrent running at over 4mbit/s xD
 
We now have better internet!!!

Download 10.48mbps
upload 1.37mbps

YAY much better than it was and I can now watch HD youtube videos again :)
 
No idea. I guess they were just giving us slow internet to see if we would complain!?

We did complain so they made it faster...
Does it cost them less to give us shockingly slow internet?
 
I just did a speed test and got

Ping 124ms
Download 1.47mbps
Upload 0.47mbps

So im guessing thats pretty rubbish :( bloody sky internet.

Yeah. I don't seem to have problems downloading or uploading. I'm on a FTTH network though, and there are plans available up to four times faster than mine.

Ping 10 to 20ms
Download 18 to 23mbps
Upload 2 to 5mbps

Its the editing where I'm stuck at the moment. No software to combine external audio means I'm stuck. On a Mac it seems options are limited and expensive.
 
Is there no way for you to have combined audio direct into your camera?
I just use imovie at the moment. its easy to use but limited on what I can actually do with it :( until i can get a new mac this will have to do for now.

Uploaded a video in under an hour earlier on my new internet speed! woop woop

Just edited the second one of the evening so that will be uploaded tomorrow too.

I can, and probably will, but that requires drilling of holes in my Sony waterproof case, and I'm not sure what the audio quality will be like. So, I'm doing a permanent mod to the case, just to find out whether I'm willing to live with the audio quality.

It will make it possible to use iMovie though, and I'm not one for effects anyway, so it might just be the ticket. Can you string together movie clips with iMovie? I ask, because my Sony action cam chops the video up into 4gb clips (about 30 minutes).

For a while there I really enjoyed using the Trial version of Final Cut Pro X! :D
