IDV users: IDV offers several movie capture formats to upload to RAMADDA. But I am not loving the choices. Is there a best approach? * Animated gif is small and easily viewed on all platforms. But it doesn't have controls for frame stepping. * .mov is good for Mac but some Windows machines choke on it. * .avi is good for windows, but large, and it seems some Mac browsers won't display it. * There is AniS/FLAniS .html in the menu, but it seems to require a folder full of frames so it doesn't publish to RAMADDA as one file with one button push it seems. * Various Javascript players for browsers are nice, I could save folders of frames and learn to set this up, if someone says this is the best. Who's delighted with their animations output strategy, preferably an approach that's one-button publishable to RAMADDA? Thanks for any advice, Brian ********************************************* Brian Mapes, Professor Meteorology and Physical Oceanography RSMAS, University of Miami 4600 Rickenbacker Causeway Miami, FL 33149-1098 phone: (305) 421-4275 fax: (305) 421-4696 email: mapes@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:mapes@xxxxxxxxx> Web: http://www.rsmas.miami.edu/users/bmapes/ **********************************************
