Ground Control Ogg Videos

Hey guys, I’ve added a new video to the ground control website and I’ve decided to show ogg video using the html5 tag, what do you think:

Introduction Video

I designed how it lays out on the page in css and the X in the corner to close it. I could have shown a flv (flash video) since I uploaded it to blip.tv, but I can link to the ogv file.

The video choices work via Server Side Includes, nothing complex. But logical.

What are your thoughts on the video I did with my wife? Some say it’s a bit too long but I’m inviting everyone to submit their ground control videos, show me what you do with ground control and how it helps you get involved.

Use gtk-RecordMyDesktop and post here your results.

    Can you link the ogv’s? I’m getting serious lag on the vids. BTW, your site looks visually appealing.

    The site is too long for my netbook (1024×600), and the videos float so that I can get to the play button. I’ve hidden both status bar and bookmark bar, but that’s not enough.

    So by “some say it’s a bit too long” you mean us after we watched it? :P
    Too bad we couldn’t do the second take.

    Actually some other people said it was a bit long too.
