OUR MAIN SECTIONS
| There's a nice, huge story on the Time Magazine website about Philadelphia Television in the Fifties. It mentions our website and draws from our material. Author Richard Corliss refers to this site as "invaluable...a trove of early TV memories for Delaware Valley nostalgiaholics." |
Our encoding of audio and video has been upgraded for clearer, sharper and less choppy video with better sounding audio. We are using the latest technology and this may require you to download (it's free) the latest version of the Real Player. Items previously on our website will still work with older versions. All items will play on the most current. Once you download the latest free player, you still may be required to download older codes for everything to work. This is normal and very easy. Just follow the prompts. We have also started to encode our audio and video in the Windows Media format. That player is usually installed as part of Windows when you purchased your computer.
Some of our older files of our audio and video rolls. That is, it goes from one files directly into the next segment. This is done for faster loading. We are also encoding with surestream. This means the file actually contains two streams. One is for dial-up connections and the other is for DSL, Cable and other broadband connections. Your computer will automatically select the correct stream. Newer uploads usually are in one segment (this is because of an increase in technology).
