  • Discussion keeps the world turning.

  • This is round table.

  • You're listening to roundtable.

  • I'm Nih Hong lin, joined by Steve and Yu shun.

  • Coming up, remember one hd meant razor sharp images that made you feel like you could count every pore.

  • Well fast forward to today and that same label feels bit blurry.

  • Platforms promise 4k but what we often get feels more like just ok so whats going on?

  • Lets unravel the mystery of disappearing video clarity and find out if we are getting conned by pixels.

  • Also, another topic of todays roundtable is like why do we use the word like like all the time?

  • It drives some people crazy, but is it really just a filler or something more?

  • But before that, we live in a time when technology advances faster than ever.

  • But why does it feel like the quality of those videos we stream all the time isnt keeping pace?

  • Is it just nostalgia clouding our judgment or our platforms secretly sacrificing clarity for speed and also profit?

  • A viral video complaining that high definition videos now have become less clear than that four years ago is getting peoples attention.

  • And what exactly does the video, the short video talking about video said, actually.

  • This video, it is a long video to be honest.

  • Yeah, but in simple terms, they discovered that videos with the same resolution have different quality when uploaded to video sharing sites compared to their original recordings.

  • Also, they noted that the same videos have become blurrier compared to a few years ago.

  • That is indicating that these platforms may be subtly compressing the videos or lowering their clarity.

  • And the complaints are from both these content creators and audiences.
