Well, just might help a bit ... I have my stereo component connected to the computer, so I got rid of the pc´s speakers and got myself my mammoth speakers up and running. So whenever I have trouble with static or anything I just fiddle a bit with the equalizer ..and then I can enjoy perfectly the videos. It´s just like an image with a bad contrast setting, just fiddle with it a bit ... and you can get a great image afterwards. Perhaps it might help people a bit, since I do think the shark videos are awesome ... and more important, enjoyable. Excellent work Mike!
