    It's the bar that pops up when you move your mouse, the one at the bottom has the play/pause button on it. It doesn't seem to happen every time but often enough that it has been an annoyance. I tried to replicate it just a minute ago and it went away as it's supposed to.

    I was doing some research on that stuff after someone mentioned it in the shout box one day. I wouldn't mind trying it but last I checked on it everyone who backed the project and preordered; all of the orders have been on back order.

    Soylent Green is a movie, where Soylent Green is made of people. Soylent is named after it, but yeah, it looks interesting.

    Very well done. The video covers a lot of the basics and does it well in an easy to follow way.

    My one critique would be to the recorded audio. Did you use a pop filter? I can understand not being able to use one if you used a headset but they are about 10 bucks for if you have a dedicated mic. Cheaper with a wire coat hanger and some nylon stockings. I couldn't help noticing the S sounds and some possible popping. But apart from that you were speaking very well and this was the only thing I could find so I think that's really good.

    Video editing was very well done also and I certainly found the parts were you emphasise certain points done well.

    Edit: What are these beacons you speak of? Do they work like bacons?

    Yeah I was fighting with pops, I rerecorded lots of sections to try and reduce them, I just used my headset cause I don't have a dedicated mic.

    I can tell you what I used in last sunday's meeting if you are interested in what a basic setup is like and what exact parts are used?

    Thanks, but I don't think I'll use it that much to warrant buying it.
