Thanks Steve. Glad to see the video up as one big file. Smile

I do think my buggy is rinning well too, but it's good to hear it from you guy's too though.

Thanks Scott.

By the way, how many guy's are lucky enouigh to have a buggy trail right off of their front yard? You can see why I don't ever run my buggy in the street, and the fact it is a 55mph road.

Has anybody downloaded the big boy file and watched it as one big movie?
I think it is much better that way. Smile

So your saying the big file did play for you after installing that codec? That's good to hear.
Thanks for the link.

I think it is hard to make a good buggy video.

When it is shot outside the buggy from a stationary point, you don't get a good feel of how much fun it is from inside the buggy.

When it is shot from inside the buggy, how to get the camera not to jitter is still a mystery to me. Mabey a HelmetCam is the way to go using your body as an added stabilizer?

Considering I was driving and filming at the same time, I was just glad the trail, jumpy as it was, is still in the frame most of the time. Smile

I guess the video was just showing the trail my buggy rides.

Hey Talonman, i just watched your video. Wow I need to go spew now too! Shocked

Actually I couldn't stop thinking of those things in the forest from Return of the Jedi while watching that. Have you tried strapping the camera to the passenger headrest? That might get you some decent stable video, and give a better idea how smooth your buggy is.

I'm so jealous you're just feet away from a trail like that!

Thanks guys! Smile

It is like A StarWars LandSpeeder in the woods, and I do love my EastSide pipe.

Mabey it needs a 'Warning: May cause Sea Sickness!' on the video link?
