I have been manually creating the "weather movie" every evening. It wasn't a long process but I had to remember to do it. Not anymore! The entire process is now automated. Every night at 10:00PM the still captures will be converted into an .avi file, another process will encode that large file into a much smaller .wmv and finally, the file will be ftp'd to our server at 10:05 PM for all to enjoy.

This was fun! Plus, I got to do some easy command line coding (eeek...a DOS prompt) which I haven't done in years.
Think of it . . . video captured, processed and distributed automatically. Maybe nothing to the uber geeks . . .but really amazing to me.
