I eventually didn't get to bed until about 4am, but found a video
editing programme to pass the hours (got a snorter of a cold which
came out on the last day of our trip)

The edited video on Youtube is a load of cr*p, so much so that I need
to go back and have a rethink about the process.

Looking at the settings, it seems that quite a low resolution is
required for optimum results, something like:

MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format
320x240 resolution
MP3 audio
30 frames per second

I think that ours are probably too high a resolution for their system
and the compression is killing the picture. I'll have another look at
it tonight.
