Saturday morning contribution for the Pacific Wave Appreciation Society. According to Tide Guide, it’s 4 ft. swells, wind 12 mph from the NE, tide going out, about halfway between low and high. That rock is the usual destination of my beach walks. I named it Starfish Rock.

@jean That’s a swell video. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Seriously, it looks great!

@jean Lovely. Sounds of a good morning.

BTW why does the preview of the video on the Mb timeline look bigger and then get smaller when you start playing? Also, the quality of the video degrades significantly after you hit play compared to the thumbnail before you hit play.

@jean
Blissful

@Archimage Heh heh. A small swell video. On Friday, it was over 14’.

@pratik Good question…for @manton! I think the video upload also uploads a frame from the video that is larger to serve as a preview.

@jean I’m not gonna touch that line. Stay safe.

@crossingthethreshold, to be fair, I saw this discrepancy on the web. I don't upload videos but the UX of seeing @jean's beautiful video thumbnail diminish in size and quality was "over promise under deliver"

@crossingthethreshold @pratik @jean It makes the poster frame before scaling the video if necessary, so it could be different... I'll see if this is something I can improve.
