I'm finally going to be able to get the HD content that Thierry Thelliez shot at StS processed - but it's going to be awhile for each piece of video. I have Voltaic, which works fine - after some work with the support guys at Shedworx. They were very helpful, and got back to me with an updated build of their tool fast!
The downside to all this is the processing time. It takes around 7 hours to process a 1.5 GB file, and then another two to convert the result into something I can push out for download. So, it will be awhile before these videos start to hit the site.
Meanwhile - yes, we are aware that downloads from the website are very slow, and I apologize for that. We are working towards a resolution of that problem, and I hope to be able to announce good news on that front soon. In the meantime, thanks for your patience.
