Can you do some writing below your videos saying what happens. I don't have flash so I have to manually download each video and use mplayer to watch them. Be nice to know what the video is about first.

Yeah thanks! I also wondered what happens in Mr Interface's dark room!

for me it just says "this video is currently unavailable"...

I'll do that.

Still dark. You must remove the cap from the lens!

Dark? What do you mean?
I used to have a problem with the youtube tags on DT when using Firefox. With Chrome I don't have that problem

A monster review that will take me 10 hours to read? :> Sounds like quite a nasty project though... Good luck, you might need it!

Have you tried Youtube's HTML5 player? Might work for you. (If you're not like me who downloads all videos because of crappy bandwidth)

This one is easy. I know exactly what, when, where, who, why and how....

html5 does not apply when the video codecs belong to adobe inc.

Used to work, now it just says get a compatible browser. I haven't changed my browser and AFAIK it's up to date. We need fully open standards on the internet to not create this kind of bullshit for people that don't want to get locked into proprietary software.

This should be interesting. Most keyboard video reviews on YouTube are crap (too long, no script, bad lighting, bad sound) but your videos are usually of good quality.

I try to improve with every video I make. My video editing skills are improving as well, so that really helps!

my only recommendation is to make sure when demo typing to do real typing... almost every reviewer just hammers the keys. But you probably already knew that.

I'm gonna do my infamous "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy old dog" trick

Come on, there's still just enough time to get it done before the year's out!

Mrinterface · 20 Dec 2013, 18:25

This is still on the agenda. Just the year is different

Muirium · 20 Dec 2013, 18:27

Well, there are some fine new keyboards due out in 2014!

Mrinterface · 20 Dec 2013, 18:34

When DT-keysounds is out, I'll gather many more boards but this time to harvest sounds instead of keyswitches.....
