many people use 8th wonder.
you don't have to do anything once they are dloaded.
you don't need to make them smaller.

Depends on what laptop u r using. Some wont perform as well as others (PC vs Mac) I usually have to re-encode ALL my videos to make them run properly. If i dont the problem i have is when 2 vidz are running at the same time they get really choppy. Once i started to reencode them it alot better. I guess if u have a good laptop and dont want to reencode them try running 2 vidz at the same time and see what ya get! Good luck and be prepared to put in work!

I'm with 8th wonder also and I use a MAC and the vidz work fine straight from the download. I also have a 1TB external and that is plenty of space for a huge amount of vids and music. I don't keep anything on my internal drive and my laptop runs smoothly, even with 2 vids running at the same time. Are you working with a MAC or PC?
