Is our new video on the homepage playing ok for you?

Hi all - we just changed the link on our homepage video to an updated, much nicer one.  smile

Can you test it out? You have to log out to see it. When you aren't logged in, it appears in the banner at the top of our homepage.  Just click the play button, and it'll pop up a window and start playing.

Does it play smoothly and consistently, or does it go bumpy / glitchy style? It would be helpful if you mention if you have a fast or slow internet connection (and the actual speed, if you know it, wouldn't hurt either).

Re: Is our new video on the homepage playing ok for you?

Well, for me, it was very smooth and actually entertaining to watch. I thought it was very nice how it didn't have to load another page just to see the video. Instead, you can just see it right there.

I also enjoyed hearing the voices of different people, making scratch really seem like a helpful and friendly community.  smile  I suppose that was from all the Scratch Interviews.
It was interesting seeing different peoples names, and I bet they will enjoy it.

Oh, and I don't have high-speed Internet, it is usually kinda slow. So that is a good thing!
But overall, it was a great introduction to the world of Scratch.  big_smile

It's great! And smooth. And fast.
I have Comcast high-speed internet.

This is my Speedtest.net result if it'll help:

It played smoothly for me.

I was just disappointed that I didn't see me or my projects anywhere.  sad

Looked good though.  smile

It’s great! It’s smooth, it works well, and it’s very inspiring. It makes me really want to go use Scratch.
