Hemmi's Videos

Hi guys

Just trying out this video stuff, first time I record and edit a video, lots to learn.

The video was recorded with my iphone, the quality was better in the computer, don't know why it's crappy at youtube.

Don't be so hard on yourself mate, that was a pretty good video

I have noticed that the moviemaker upload facility in Win XP is in standard def (max 480p) whereas in Win 7 I get to upload in HD, it may be that there is something similar on the Mac causing the problem????

I see the iPhone camera picks up the LED pulsing as well (on the rental roadblock), makes you wonder if these are manufacturer fiitted LED's and if they are aware that suppression (is that the right word?) is required.

excellent quality hemmi very nice to see specially when you speeded up half way through

I take it you did speed it up, or were you really going that fast

.....

Do they really heat the roads in the capital in the winter ???

Hi Hemmi .. I enjoyed it (lots to take in) so I'll have to watch it again later. Gee that shopping centre looks like a whopper for the size of your city

Our videos start off as 1080P or 720P. By the time I reduce them to a smaller Divx format and upload them they start to pixilate too (especially the slideshows)

Yours was still quite watchable though

A splendid video. Well done.

Looks quite "lonely" on your roads.

And as Asa says, you sure put your foot down on 05:20

I've slowed mine down but haven't speeded any up yet but might do that in the future as can fit more in and still make it a watchable length

Hemmi · **Reply #6: July 19, 2011, 23:07:51**

Yes I added more speed to the video at the highway

Asa

Some neighborhood roads have a heating system that runs on used hot water from houes, usually on steep roads.

Very nice video. Seems SUV & wagon are so popular in your place. And...the shopping mall is just so large !

Buhahaha

that video was so funny in fast motion

I'm lucky that it plays here at work - normally streamed stuff just stops dead

All the video needed was some background music from Benny Hill

Very good Hemmi (looks like the Russian Gran Prix to me)

Re 2nd vid.

Are you allowed to undertake -- right at the end, 1:35'ish, the dark car darts from lane 2 to lane 1 and passes white car.

I would expect to overtake you do it on the left, i.e. lane 3.
Here the car goes to the right, lane 1, and passes the car which is in lane 2.

I dont think there is any law like that here that forbids how you change lanes, just as long as you stay on right speed and signal when you change lanes everything is OK.

Driving to Reykjavik

Great vid really enjoyed but it was like watching one of those old silent movies or news reels from the 1920's with the speed up

accim · **Reply #17: July 22, 2011, 13:14:30**

Yeah, loved viewing the movie. Looks really great. I like how you have 3 lanes when driving between/through cities. What's the speed limit on those roads?

About the same population as our capital Hobart but has a completely different "feel" to it...
