From: Ian McCall on 10 Apr 2010 03:25 Does anyone actually look at the keynote podcast, do you think? Stream Quicktime from the web, all is fine. Download the video podcast and suddenly it switches from moving video to stills part way through. The one before that, the iPad launch event, had the audio go out of sync. The one before -that- had a video problem. Does anyone actually bother checking these videos before putting them up? Bah. Cheers, Ian

Memory is saying it was definitely broken at about three quarters of the way through, and might have been broken slightly earlier than that. For the iPhone 4.0 one, it breaks extremely early: switches to a series of stills at pretty much exactly the first minute. It's not just flip-book, the Keynote presentation slide showing the screenshots (on the right) still animates smoothly in and out, but the presenters don't move and the screenshots don't animate - for example the multitasking demo at 46 minutes in animates smoothly from the web, but is entirely static on the download. Cheers, Ian

I've only watched about the first 15 minutes or so, but didn't see any problems with it. This was playing it from within iTunes. The file itself is called 'Apple Special Event, April 2010.m4v' and is reported at 739 MB on disk (739,021,969 bytes).

It's been reposted then - mine has the same title, but takes 187,617,814 bytes with an MD5 of f4122cf42722459ed3118210f620717b. Cheers, Ian |
