ORL Movies

This service provides MPEG encoded videos of some of the work done at ORL. Two sizes of movie are provided - a large format suitable for those with fast links and powerful computers, and a smaller format for those with slower connections and machines. Commonly available MPEG players do not support the synchronized playing of audio and video. Consequently, these movies have been subtitled using the Medusa Applications Environment.
