No links to this page from other pages; will make it hard to discover. I'm not subscribed to unleashkids and I know many are not. I suggest you use our mailing list for OLPC development, which is devel@lists.laptop.org. I can't think of a reason why you would not. --Quozl 18:43, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Adam asked if a testing matrix is possible, and suggests codec, bit rate, and name of collection. Video playback depends most critically on picture size (width times height in pixels, aspect ratio), picture frame rate (as distinct from compression-delivery bit rate), and picture complexity. Each collection is a moving target, with a range of these dimensions. It may be more effective to agree on a single representative test video which is transcoded into different picture sizes, frame rates, codecs, bit rates, codecs, container formats, and delivery network protocols. A smart proxy may be imagined that will transcode on the fly. --Quozl 22:24, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
