Thanks a ton! Really appreciate the love. Let me know if we can make the experience better. Always looking to improve.

Hey there. Tim from Heavybit. I wanna make sure you're having the best experience possible. Can get me some more info on the banner? It might be the video of Ilya's talk.

When the video can't be played (I don't have Flash on my machine) it'd be better to remove the banner altogether:

Gotcha. Thanks for the feedback.

Sorry, never realised that it was meant to be a video (it wasn't playable on my iPad anyway)

With a big enough screen, a sticky video with transcript below does make sense. Perhaps only make it sticky when the video starts playing though?

As it is, it just appears as a huge waste of space blocking my browser window...

I personally don't think it should be sticky whether it can be played or not

Sometimes it's nice to skim a transcript when a video can't be watched or when deciding whether to invest the time into watching the video. Some way of hiding the banner would be useful here.

Yes, it's the video of the talk that follows you as you scroll down the page. If you are not watching the video it is a terrible format as it blocks a large amount of the reading area.

yes, it's the video. Some of us, though, would prefer to just read the transcript (thanks for providing a high quality transcript, awesome) instead of watching the video.

Some way to collapse the video 'banner' into a smaller area, so we can use the full screen, or nearly, when reading the transcript, would be welcome. Perhaps if you click on the transcript to open the video at that point, it could expand again.

Why is the video sticky? It's impossible to position the text underneath to the natural reading position.

Solid feedback. Something like this: http://cl.ly/image/333k431K233o

Tim here - Thanks brokentone! Glad you like it. We built a lot of it ourselves with some great tools. The player is video.js and we use popcorn.js to sync the transcripts, outline and player timecode. The video is transcribed and timecoded with Zencaptions and the transcoding is done via Zencoder. Let me know if you've got any other questions. Happy to help. Or better yet, shoot me an email: tim[at]heavybit.com.

Right now we're working out some kinks with V1, but we're hard at work for the next version. Suggestions welcome. :)

Great work! Always wondered what the vibe masters were up to ;)
