As Dan correctly pointed out, we have a major issue with Google Maps technology: The audio component on Maps movie, their only channel available for sound, does not support stereo. Only mono. (The other issue he mentioned was a faulty download at 11kHz and has been corrected). If any of you are bloggers and care to weigh in, by all means do so on the Google blogs and perhaps we can correct this issue. BTW, while its much more complicated, and involves mounting soundscapes in another and separate way (Flash), the sound is much better on Google Earth. But they've asked us to stick w/ Maps for the moment. Bernie Wild Sanctuary POB 536 Glen Ellen, CA 95442 707-996-6677 http://www.wildsanctuary.com Google Earth zooms: Earth.WildSanctuary.com |
