Recently I found a request for, well, say: information to one of my older You Tube videos. Clicked on the link provided by You Tube, being logged in into NSA-friendly Google — of course. But I could not comment.

Thus, Fredrik Häll, here’s what I would have replied if nazi-Google would have let me:
I do not experience distortions at all, well, mostly it’s clean and distortions I attribute to glitches in the WiFi uplink.
Please check your USB cabling and your power supply — both did bite me in the past. Besides that, I’m rather happy with the MR 3040 and Logitech web cam combo. (Although usually I use the MR3020 for stationary use.)
Any options for “video hosting” besides YT are greatly appreciated.

How about vimeo.com?
Always thought about vimeo as an “high-end YT”; might re-use my account there in the short-term future though …
