Boffin Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Linky The video passes give you a choice of normal or hi-res, access to live timing screens (all timing points), live QP, free practice, warm-up and races. Also video library with highlights back to mid 1990s and full races from 2002 up to the latest race. Available formats: Hi-Res: 720x400 px at 1000kbps Standard quality: 533x300 px at 500kbps Low quality: 480x288 px at 250kbps. Hi-res access is 45Euro, Standard 27Euro. There is no separate price for low-res. Andy Link to comment
russell_bynum Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Dang...I knew I shoulda waited. I bought mine at the start of the season for full price. Link to comment
markgoodrich Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Okay, I got the half-price deal, but am befuddled by the technical stuff. 1. How do I watch the videos full-screen instead of in a tiny window? I intend to hook the computer up to my television, so I can watch on the hi-def big screen, as I do with Netflix "watch instantly" movies. 2. How to I control the videos, such as pause, go back, etc? I've installed the latest Adobe Flash Player. I'll be very disappointed if I have to watch a screen the size of an iPhone. TIA, please type slowly, so I can understand. Link to comment

Never mind, I figured out how to make it full screen. I hope I can get the resolution better (I bought the hi-res package); it's very pixelated, and I have a pretty high-res computer screen.

Boffin Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Hi-res is only 720x400, which is about half of what the average computer monitor is set to. Link to comment

Thanks, Boffin, turned out all I had to do was connect the television and reboot; the computer recognized the tv's resolution; picture is not bad in the hi-res offer; not quite HD, but better than standard U. S. broadcast. I'm still not clear on whether I have to watch practice and qualifying live...it's always on before dawn here in Texas. Link to comment
