   Visually much sharper. I miss the curtains flapping, though. They lend a ‘breezy’ atmosphere to your videos.

   Curtains flapping in a breeze are a powerful subliminal message, you know.

   Mo,
   Audio volume is at half that of YouTube player. On the not very loud iBook G4, with everything maxed out, I can hardly hear you. Also, player defaults to volume set at 50% so every video has to be turned up by hand. Not cool. See what you can do.

   Loren, if I don’t manually turn the player off, it replays.

   It doesn’t have to be smaller - just embed it at twice the pixel dimensions.

    Only annoying thing I noticed was — yeah — if you don’t manually stop it, it starts blaring again when you least expect it. I hate when I have to go hunting through windows for the thing that has started making noise for no apparent reason.

    And yeah the size could be an issue. Why are none of these things resizable? I swear I’ve ended up at the chiropractor from watching web videos.

    Loren,
    I cannot seem to get the player to work via Google Reader. I says it is buffering but gives no percentage. It works great on the site but via Google Reader it does not!

    Snotmonkey, I have no problem with buffering so maybe it’s not Podtech !?!
