Yeah, I figured. Still didn't work, although the h.264 Batman Begins trailer worked just fine. Must be a connection thing. Oh well...

its multi format ofcourse

there are various aurls in the initial .mov that you can see in notepad (easier on the eyes in notepad2) pull the h264 url out of that and pop it in quicktime7 and its like streaming a dvd (atleast it was for me and my 100mbit office connection)

For everyone else as well. The qaulity is superb.

NetRyder: Keep trying, most of the akamai stuff is overloaded, as my video was choppy all the way through, stopping to buffer quite a few times.

Video ran fine for me for like 10mins, it then paused and I stopped it as it was nothing interesting anyhoo.

**Xie** · June 7th, 2005

Well if indeed people are going to be able to run OSX on a "beige box" perhaps we can pray it'll run on a AMD box?

Or if not natively that someone with sanity will "hack" it so it shall.

**NetRyder** · June 7th, 2005

Yeah, I hope so. I'll be building my Athlon64 box next year with the parts I got from Microsoft. Would be fun to have Tiger installed on one partition and test the LH betas on the other. Mmm...

Finally got it working. Looks like it was the connection. I'm on campus now, and it works nicely.

**muzikool** · June 8th, 2005

Ugh, I still haven't been able to watch it. Too busy today. I didn't even make it through the whole Coldplay album!

**muzikool** · June 8th, 2005

I was finally able to watch the webcast this morning. Rosetta is impressive -- I'm glad it's nothing like loading the classic environment!

From a consumer standpoint, I don't know how this switch can be a bad thing. I've got a G5 PowerPC processor and plan on having it for at least the next 3 years, but that won't be a problem because Intel-based Macs won't be migrated 100% for almost that amount of time. I probably wouldn't buy the first line of MacIntels anyway, so that puts me at about 4 years comfortably. Software companies will likely go far beyond that amount of time before phasing out PowerPC support, so I'll have universal binaries to take care of me. Then there's always Rosetta to fall back on.

**X-Istence** · June 9th, 2005

Rosetta is for PowerMac binaries -> Intel binaries, not the other way around :P. At least, not for now it seems.

**muzikool** · June 9th, 2005

That's the impression I got as well, so re-reading the end of my last post doesn't make much sense.

desie · June 21st, 2005

Well I just watched the main video (stream from apple quicktime site) on QuickTime 7 Pro on my Mac Mini. It didn't buffer once!

. I liked how the demo machine was Intel and they didn't know till half way through, that was funny and also them taking the **** out of Microsoft.

That Microsoft speech girl did not wear the right dress or whatever either was like well to bright no offence, interesting video though I like the sound of itunes and podcast.

**muzikool** · June 21st, 2005

That Microsoft spokesperson wasn't good in general.

desie · June 21st, 2005

You have to expect that though! <sarcasim>

**SPeedY_B** · June 27th, 2005

Why? Bill usually gives really good presentations. I must admit though, the MacBU representative is a bit... odd, and when Balmer takes the stage, I just cringe.
