I politely mentioned this weeks ago Patrick, and offered a possible solution, but no, the issue is still present and is starting to RUIN "This Week in Computer Hardware"

Can you please get a proper Video Camera - this week the quality of your portion of the show is full of low quality blur and constant auto focusing by a cheapo webcam

I suggest the least you can do, when doing this show from the comfort of you own adobe is invest in a suitable Camera.

Audio quality is rubbish too!

It's always been ridiculous for a trade show to be right after the holidays. People had to spend all their holidays working on demos for CES & nothing was ever as good as it could be if the trade show was after a time when everyone was in the office.

@vtwinbreed self-conscious? very cocky IMHO

@transmitthis I agree. A simple diffused or soft light source with a textured cloth backdrop or a printed TWTCH backdrop would drastically increase the quality of the show. The minimal cost would certainly please viewers, but also help to obtain better sponsors.

@transmitthis He does have one, he just didn't use enough lighting. You can see in a few past episodes that he does have generally good quality sometimes.. I am starting to think he's becoming self-conscious..

@transmitthis I agree, its very annoying ......
