Q:
Watching our videos
A:
There are two ways that you can watch our videos -
You may DOWNLOAD and play our video from your computer hard drive, over and over again.
Or you can stream them. To download you need to click on the "DOWNLOAD" button of your
choice and then "SAVE TARGET AS".
Why would you want to do this?
For lots of good reasons!
- If your ISP charges you for downloading, you only have to download the
video episode once (instead of every time you want to watch it)
- If you're on dial-up you can still watch the 1200k videos
(they're much better quality)
- Sometimes the internet becomes congested, which causes video streaming to fail.
By downloading the video first and then watching it you always have a smooth experience.
After the download of the iPod/iPhone is finished, what shall I do next to transfer the output
files into my iPod?
- Do you have iTunes installed? It is a must. The transfer must be done by this tool.
Please download it from
here. It’s FREE.
Q:
Can I watch your video on a MAC?
A:
Yes, you can watch our streaming videos they are in flash format 700 kbps (H.263)
and 1200 kbps (H.264). Also you can download either the version
Quick Time, Ipod, Iphone or MP4.
Q:
Why isn't the picture quality the same as on TV?
A:
Internet bandwidth is an important part of video streaming delivery and playback.
We have made each episode available in two formats: 700 kbps
“narrow band”
and 1200 kbps “broadband” ( for
ADSL,
ISDN,
T1…). Bandwidth requirements for
700 kbps are such that it reduces the quality of the images and sound when
compared to television broadcast quality. The quality of video streaming
through 700 kbps modems and standard telephone lines may therefore be poor,
whereas the quality through 1200 kbps broadband will be greatly increased.
Our streaming videos have been optimised for viewing on Flash Player 9.

Q:
Are there any known streaming quality issues?
A:
Members may encounter issues with video streaming quality due to the distance and
multiple networks and ISP's that he data has to be transferred through in order to
reach your computer. These issues are not unique to SweetandRaw.com and are not related
to the quality of the video content available on the site. Many factors can affect
the viewing quality of audio and video streaming. For example:
- The user's computer and its ability to playback audio and video content --
from processing power and graphics cards to quality of speaker, modem and so on.
- The ISP (Internet Service Provider) of the user.
- The connectivity 'hops' to access a streaming server and playback the audio and/or video content.
Some users may be come through to the SweetandRaw.com streaming server via many hops.
The audio and video playback quality could be affected by this.
- Connection speed of the user (this may not be guaranteed by ISPs)
