It's kinda hacked together, and I don't have any video from around the turn, but at least it's something to look at for now. It's not super-high quality encoding, but it is fairly large. Get those 35 megabytes here:

Jeff, THANKS for another video. Great quality, and like others have said, it really is a quite ride for sure.

Honestly, I was hoping for a combination of onride and offride video footage. Like a "real" action video (the annimated action footage is no longer on the Point's web site) combined with some onride POV and reverse POV. Hopefully something like that will come with time. To this day, I still watch the TTD POV video since that masterfully combines both.

Thanks again for the video Jeff - always appreciated since I know how much works goes into them.

That was an awesome video and if some of you listen really carefully you can hear Jeff say "haaaa That's awesome."

I don't get it but the video doesn't run smooth for me. It jumps around. I have a fairly descent computer too.

Thanks for sharing. The quality looks to be pretty damn good to me!

If the video doesn't run smoothly, you have either an inadequate computer or you have tons of crap running in the background. The price you pay for using Windows.

Unless of course you know computers better than that Jeff, then suddenly Windows isn't so bad. But I use Mac 99% of the time anyways.

Nice video though, I was checking out the high-def pro that Sony had the other day, but didn't read into the Panasonic yet. I may consider that now, after seeing this video.

We probably don't need a play-by-play of every system it works on. If my AppleTV can play it, I suspect most comprooders can.

Why were there so many empty seats on those trains?
