HD GOLD IS HIGH QUALITY DIGITAL MEDIA

Our website designers have created a high quality standard for digital media on the web.

St Peters NM are proud to be amongst the first to benefit from being able to offer our website visitors content in this standard.

It is totally free of charge like all our content but offers lossless quality in images for presentation platforms such as our slide shows and image galleries.

For our video's it enable us to use higher bitrate and encoding which gives you the visitor an enhanced viewing experience.

HD Gold digital media enables us also to raise the profile of issues and content by presenting them in this format. User testing has shown that HD Gold content has a higher click through rate and consumption that standard web content.

This enables us to exploit that content to a much greater extent for the benefit of the St Peters neighbourhood and community.

Our website has recently been moved to a dedicated Media server in order for us to present this content at this standard.

Due to the much higher bitrate used HD Gold video will not play on YouTube.

Additionally, we wish to exploit HD Gold content to draw people to our website so we can present them with a broader range of content relevant to St Peters Neighbourhood.

STPETERSNM.COM is committed to using the very latest information technology to highlight issues in order to get better services for this neighbourhood as well as to inform and keep local people up to date on local news and issues.

Can you PC cope with HD Gold.

HD Gold content is admittedly more demanding on pc hardware and system resources than what standard lower quality content is.

On most entry level computers and notebooks sold in the last 12 months, this content should load and play smoothly.

Older systems will need a memory upgrade or a graphics card upgrade which is a simple process that can be carried out by most hardware technicians.

Recommended broadband speed is 8 Mbps minimum.

HD Gold video content will download and display on slower internet connections but will usually buffer during playback.

Codecs for video display may also be an issue if you want to download and play our MP4 HD files to you pc rather than play the flv videos that we present to you through your web browser.

For codecs download and install the free K-LITE CODEC pack.

Note: St Peters NM IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR 3RD PARTY CONTENT. If you need assistance with the codec installation please seek the help of a qualified technician.
