YouTube vs VIMEO round 2

by David Druckenmiller on Jun.18, 2009, under Technique & Technology

Here’s another side by side comparison of YouTube and VIMEO. In light of the distraction of the two clips playing automatically on the main blog page, the auto play of these clips has been turned off. You can still click the play buttons though and get the same effect. Pausing on a particular frame on each clip and then viewing full screen is very interesting.

The uploaded source clip was a 1280×720 5100kbps .H264 compressed QuickTime movie. The embedded YouTube display is 570×350 and for VIMEO is 570×320. Give it a look and see if you can tell a difference. Curious to hear your thoughts.

YouTube vs VIMEO – quality battle

by David Druckenmiller on May.15, 2009, under Technique & Technology

Here’s a side by side comparison of YouTube and VIMEO. With all the buzz about YouTube’s improved “HD” quality and auto embed code, I was curious to see how the two sharing sites stack up against each other. In light of the distraction of the two clips playing automatically on the main blog page, the auto play of these clips has been turned off. You can still click the play buttons though and get the same effect.

The uploaded source clip was a 1280×720 5000kbps .H264 compressed QuickTime movie. Note the entire build has a textured graphics treatment, sort of like old paper. The embedded YouTube display is 640×385 and for VIMEO is 640×360. The display may require you to adjust your browser window width a bit as it is rather large. Give it a look and see if you can tell a difference.

An appropriate clip, given the coming 65th anniversary of D-Day in June. To veterans young and old, …”thank you.”
