Jon -- thanks for pointing this out.
The other great thing about the LimoHD system is that it is resolution-
independent: resolution, color depth, and playback rate are dependent
only on the equipment (hard drives, computer chip, bus speed, and
projector or monitor resolution). Our current resolution is 1400*1050
@ 24 or 30 fps, 16 bit color. No compression.
