The annimations really seem to help to show the dynamics of the clouds and wind outside vs the static webcam views we had before. And on a day like today with 30-50mph winds and a cloud bank that seems to disolve as it approaches to MLO it is quite the video to watch. These videos should appear on the 9th screen in the video bank. I think the animations should restart when the computer restarts. However there is a change they may crash at midnight based on the way the code handles the date change. I hope it will just work but I haven't thought of a good way to test this change without waiting for it to happen. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Dec 17 02:41:21 GMT 2016 Fun day on the mountain with wind dominating every outdoor activity. ___end___
