Raytown Board of Aldermen meeting on 5/17/2011

The video in this post is done at a medium quality instead of high upload quality used in the past. It often takes over 4 hours to process and another 4 hours to upload a 2 hour Board of Aldermen meeting. This change cuts that time in half and may also result in a reducing delays viewing the video by readers with slower Internet connections. Please email me feedback on if the quality is acceptable.
