Size of some quicktime movies is preference setting..
Authored by: mattblak on Aug 19, '02 10:09:47AM

The *older* users may know this or will be on a cable anyway but...
I couldn't work out why some quicktime trailers were coming down postage stamp sized until I noticed that it was only the type that simply say "click here to play movie"..
Then I remembered the connection speed setting in the system prefs>quicktime..

Even though I have only the built in 56k modem on my powerbook, I have changed this setting to 512k/DSL and while the movies do take longer to download, they sure are more exciting quarter screen than postage stamp sized!

You don't need to save them to enjoy this effect.. but of course...

And luckily, you don't *need* broadband to enjoy this wonderful site.. (oh but I want it..)
