• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Hi guys,

We make a 1 hour DVD/BuRay production of our USA chases every year and this year have been asked to also add a 'Download' option...

Does anyone know how to, what to, where to and when to?

We use Adobe Premiere Elements 10.....

1) Do we upload to YouTube as a private upload and then provide passwoed to those who want to watch it on their TV or laptop? or to our website in a hidden folder so they can download (or play) from there? or any other ideas?

2) File type? We use MP4's for our presentations with no compression - great resolution but BIIIIG file sizes...is there a better (and faster) filetype to usefor this purpose (15 minutes of HD MP4 took 587 minutes to upload to YouTube and my BETA tester had a problem with buffering - especially with the Australian internet speeds), and if it can be compressed how much can you compress it before you start to suffer loss of HP quality.

3) How much would you play for a 1 hour video if you were to download one?

TIA (feeling like a noob!!!)

Jane
