YOMAR,

Your English is just fine! Welcome to Stardust@Home!

The range of focus movies you are referring to is the current range for the calibration movies. You'll probably also notice that your rank statistics go up each time you answer one of them.

You'll probably also notice that the quality of the image is slightly lower in the calibration movies than in the others. They are aware of this.

Happy dusting!

They seem to have renumbered the movies so this is no longer a problem, though I still seem to have a knack for picking them out even before I spot the track.
If you're going to be just like everyone else, what's the point in existing?

the new numbering system appears to be just a facade... the old id system still appears to have the underlying functionality. for example: my events still uses the old numbering system. :? confusing.

Amusing actually. in a bit of a rush, I didn't rotate my screen. So when I started working again earlier, I noticed the ID's were different, but the address bar stuff is unchanged. Going back to portrait now so it won't matter. To me anyway! ;-) At this point I find them more a nuisance than anything else, given how many I've been through. Easing up the ratio as you go on would be nice. Even dropping to 1 in 5 would be a start.

@orion: so true! too many calibration movies.... starts to feel like a lot of wasted time. although calibration movies usually take 1-2 seconds it starts to add up
