FYI the download file versions are at 720p quality @ 4-5megs bitrate, so the Blu Ray disk versions are 4 times higher qualiy than the download files. My download files are the same bit rate that Eurowam and Mostwam use for their 720p files....so he bit rate I am using for a 720p download file is pretty much the standard used by most other producers. The problem you are probably referring to is caused by "water"....ie. standing water such as a swimming pool is no problem for digitial renderings.....but when you have fast moving jets of water shooting up from the ground....which is seen in many of the Russian fojuntans......this can turn the video imagery into a pixelated mush at times. You even see this problem on HDTV shows like "Dancing with the Stars".....i.e. when you have confetti dropping all over the stage....confetti makes the picture go all mushy looking.

There are some technical considerations viz the bit rate chosen for the online file...i.e. my hosting company server has a file size limit for the max size each file can be....and currently the max file size I can have for a single file on my server is 1.1 GB.....and my Russian files are 30-33 minutes per file, so a 4 meg bit rate for a 30 minute file produces a file size of around 1GB. If I used a higher bit rate the file size would be too large and not accepted by my server. The only way I can make online files at higher bit rates would be to shorten the time length of my videos from 30 mins to say 15 minute files......which I could do....but my customers prefer the 720p 30 minute format, so what I do is offer to send folks 1080p disk versions by mail if they prefer 4 times higher quality.

Anyway.....please contact me by email and I will offer to send you a Blu Ray disk, or I will offer a free download of another file instead.
