Does the recipient of a Videogram need to have a multimedia kit, or a sound card and speakers, to play it back?
Yes, in order to hear the audio portion of the Videogram. Without a sound card and speakers, the audio cannot be played back. The video, however, will run normally. In general, we recommend that a recipient have at least a display with 256 colors and preferably 64K colors minimum. The Videogram will play on systems even with 16 colors but the quality will be very poor since the original data was compressed from 16 million colors. In systems with 256 colors or less, additional work must be done to map the colors to the limited set. This will slow down playback and cause more frames to be dropped.
