Hey Europeans!
 

I need someone from europe, belgium or Netherlands a plus, to test the 2 mpegs that are included in the link below. The first one SHOULD be 20s and I believe the 2nd one should be 13 or so seconds. Since I'm not in europe I can't test it myself. Thanks

Test it please


Please just click and let me know how long the 2 files go for. Also please tell me your country.

i sale europeans...

no euros on this board at this hour?

both took around 15s

m lazy european

European Proxy?

Wont help. PAL & NTSC is based on broadband standards and "band spacing" as far as I know

Forgot to take time, but it maxed out my connection with 55KB/s (Sweden)

PAL and NTSC only apply to TV/Video.

Yeah I have great bw with webair :thumbsup

If you could go back and count the seconds on the 2, that'd be great

Used to think so too....

It is the format of the tv signal, that's all. Nothing to do with how mpegs are stored or displayed on the computer.

Different mpeg codecs might however affect the time it takes to play the files.

took me 15 sec

took 18secs for me

took me 5 sec :D

8 seconds here.... and pal/ntsc is not a issue on a pc

Correct it doesn't matter when you play it on your computer only when you play a movie on your tvset. 50 or 60 Hz. Pal is less frames per second and more lines. And better color :)

The first one is 6 seconds

The second is almost 14 seconds

This is through DSL from Deutsche Telekom in Germany

EU rocks!!

No offence, but...
This is a joke, right?

about 10-12 seconds for each of them, from Sweden

its perfect

6 seconds - sweden.

Ppl, his question is how long those files are (because he thinks that if you are from PAL region then when you play NTSC file it will not be the same length), not how many seconds you need to dl files...
Short answer - there is no difference. NTSC file will have more frames - more frames per second, but number of seconds is the same... :2 cents:

8 seconds here, the netherlands

NTSC (Never Twice the Same Colour ) = if I remember correctly 30 frames per second and PAL = 24 frames per second

Almost :)
NTSC ~ 30fps
PAL - 25fps
Film (TC) - 24fps
:thumbsup

To be correct NTSC is 29,97 FPS :upsidedow
