It’s a fun experiment. Reminds me of years ago watching some movies on the screens of small iPods.

Also I will give it that it’s a surprising amount of movement for being just 6fps, that file.

Fun experiment, but not really watchable with this much loss of detail :p

(The movies we watched on small iPod screens were surprisingly watchable, thanks to having good audio and image quality in spite of being somewhere around 320x160 px resolution.)

heck yeah, I watched an entire season of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex on an iPod 5.5G Video :) Those were 320x240, maybe you meant a smaller iPod though haha

Ours were probably 320x240 too. It was many years ago so I didn’t remember exactly :p

Although, for a widescreen movie it might use less than 240 of the available vertical size. For example if the aspect of the original video is 16:9, then a 320 px wide resized version of the video will be about 180 px tall.

So yeah, my guess is that the screen was 240 tall and that some of the videos we watched on it may have been as little as 180 px tall :D

Ohhh yeah true! I bet it was cropped... well, I've got a new drive (SD card) and battery in that iPod so unfortunately I don't have the videos on it anymore, or I'd check... haha
