The effect of tape speed on meteor trails.
(@ 1X speed) Dec 06 '03 - 23:45:06 pm  A meteor in Eridanus /Fornax border. Full DV avi played back indicated a total of  14 frames or 0.56 second in duration. ( @ 2X slower)  The same meteor but reprocess by slowing the tape speed by 2X - more interruptions and closer 'spacing' resulted. The two stars at centre top are 41 and 43 Eri.
