In one embodiment, a flocked article is provided that includes an elastomeric film and a plurality of flock fibers on a flocked surface of the film. The method is for conducting electric activation of an electric double layer capacitor in which nonporous carbonaceous electrodes containing graphite-like fine crystalline carbon are soaked in an organic electrolytic solution. The electrolyte has a solute including lithium iodide dissolved in an ether-containing solvent including a 1,2-dimethoxypropane based solvent component and no more than 30 volume percent 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The method may also include analyzing the demodulated data at the monitoring site. The video decoder also includes a second write port to write uncompressed video data to a second buffer in a second format adapted to provide the uncompressed video data for subsequent processing external to the video decoder.
