Hi,

should I store a video sequence in single TARGA (24bit/pixel) pics
onto a FTP server ??

So everyone who wishes to test his compression algorithm can download
it from there and so we can compare quality !

I can do it easily with our PC-Hurricane movie grabber(tm), which can
digitize 320x240 x16bit/pixel (hicolor, YUV) in realtime to expanded
Memory at 25 or 30 frames/sec.
This gives a maximum of about 16 seconds video-digitizing with one
shot ! It only grabs fields, no frames, but this is still better for
motion compression technique.

I could perhaps upload 10 to 20 TGA pics, this wouldn't waste too much
space...


Please email me a FTP server that would accept this volume of data.
Every field is about 150 Kbytes big (single 16 bit TGA pic)
