You can get cables like this at any local electronics store of Radio Shack. Don't let them sell on you $100 Monster cables. For VHS at 10 to 15 f ... M2V + 2 WAV files to VIDEO_TS with 2 PCM soundtracks (not mp2) - There should be enough room to keep it within 4.36gb because the source was about 3gb. It's 01:26:24 and 5.29mbps. The source audio unfortunately was AC3@192 I think. I demuxed to AIFF and did my thing on it converting that to WAV. Could the new mux have the origional AC3 on one track and the remastered as LPCM on another?... LG LRH-880 remote control model number needed - Well, I took the advice here and ordered model 6711R1N205B (meant for the 780). They told me it wasn't available and got in the 6711R1N205A (note "A" at the end) the very next day. $22.60 with tax. It seems to do all the basic things that I want for my 880 (timeshift, and timed recordings). Thanks for the help and info. You guys are great.... LG LRH-780 remote control model number needed - As a follow-up - I ordered model 6711R1N205B (meant for the 780). They told me it wasn't available and got in the 6711R1N205A (note "A" at the end). It seems to do all the basic things that I want for my 880 (timeshift, and timed recordings). Thanks for the info in this thread.... Fixing sync problem on rmvb - How do you fix video/audio sync problems on .rmvb?... Questions about reception with new converter box - Well, if you're not all that crazy about HD, then cable ( analog ? ) is still good enough. That's what I have. But, during the tv series of Lost, I gotta have the HD. Course, that's ABC, and they air 15Mbits, 1280x720p. But, now that the series, Hereos is back on, I am reconsidering watching them again. I stopped watching them after seasno 1 be ... I cannot decide which camcorder to buy..Need some advice please - I dont think I am gonna edit at all .I just want good quality with a high optical zoom and easy to transfer to computer quickly.... Adding animated logo to an avi file - I'm glad it worked for you. I know nothing about MKVs, so I'm bumping this in the hope someone that does will come along to help. Good luck.... Multi zone code for Samsung BD P 1400 - That thread exists because he DVD playback component can be made region free, and if you read the threads in that post, that is what they all say. They also say that is does not change the bluray playback region restrictions. Interestingly, none of the hacks that work for the rest of the world work on the Region 1 players - perhaps because that is ... What ever happened to jog/shuttle dials? - Philips Dvd HHd recorder has one.. used for editing and to traverse the 6 hour time slip buffer.. not as good as it should be tho.... AviSynth: script command, order of execution, and 'coding efficiency' - Then my first reply was off the mark. I was assuming some sort of XviD/DivX AVI. OK, first, what is the colorspace, RGB? I know nothing about DV AVI. To find out, stick:
Info()
temporarily at the bottom of an otherwise unfiltered script. You should then add:
ConvertToYV12(Interlaced=True)
before doing the Yadif deinterlace. That way ... can I crop a m2v file without loss? - I don't use MAC, so I don't know what tools are available there, but I prefer Lanczos for resizing. To my eyes, it gives the best results. Of course, regardless of what you use to resize there will be some loss, but only you can judge if the loss is acceptable.... SVCD with jpgs and wav - many thanks for all these replies.
My dvd player claims to support vcd and svcd.So I assume that's not an issue
That's a rather interesting assumption given that I told you
1) That background music on slideshows isn't part of the standard.
2) That DVD players that claim to support SVCD sometimes don't fully support it. Example 1 - ... Am I missing something here? - DVD to resized, interlaced DivX - Yadif script:
Load_Stdcall_plugin("C:\Program Files\ AviSynth 2.5\plugins\yadif.dll")

Does anybody know where you can get or buy a copy of DVD MovieAlbumSE - TDA is probably your best alternative.... mp3 only opens by Sony Sound Forge if it's opened / saved in other programs - Depends on the version of SoundForge but Sony checks registration status each time you open an MP3 file. Only one computer can be registered. If you install to a second machine, MP3 won't open.... How to Capture DV on Lossless? - I've worked it out! i am not using CS3 on my PC and with the offline or unlinked files in the Project window, all i have to do is scroll right until i reach the title 'Tape Name' and i am able to click on each file under that title and label it! Once i have done so with one file, i highlighted it and went to File > Batch Capture, and wonderfuly, ... HDTV recordings: 1920x1088 vs. 1920x1080 lines.. [UN-RESOLVED] - Actually, to settle this mod16 vs. whatever thing, one could review the source code to dgindex and see where it utilizes mod16 algorithms, but good luck in that, especially if it uses pre calculated table or equations as they are harder to follow, else worse case, the routine could be in libraries that dgindex calls. But, for those who are c++ ... Disk Finalize - I tried an unfinalized -R disc from a 2 year old Toshiba recorder in the R410 today, it wouldn't read it. No surprise.... Video is Jerky after NTSC DVD to PAL VCD Conversion. - Not that I am going to, but if you throw enough money at it (i.e. buy some expensive software), is it not even possible to do it satisfactorily?
Yes, but not the sort of money you or I have available to us, and a lot of it is actually hardware, not software. And frankly, with the source that many people use, this type of equipment would be ina ... PAL to NTSC, NTSC to PAL framerate conversion? - Assuming the output is an mpeg-2 video stream for DVD authoring;
Solution 1 : encode at 720 x 576 @ 23.976 fps. Use DGPulldown to apply a custom pulldown for 23.976 -> 25 fps. Author and test play. Most players should be happy with this, some may not.
Solution 2 : speed up the framerate to 25 fps, then time and ptch adjust the audio to m ... adjust dvd subtitle position - As far as I know DVDSubEdit is the only program that can do that. What's the problem you're having with it?
Jeanl... Burn an AVI file on a DVD - Best software to do this - Tools -> Drive->... am trying to encode to xvid from dvd audio sync issue - You need AviSynth and the DGMPGDec package. Use DgIndex to create an index file (.d2v) and demux the audio. Use VirtualDubMod 's AviSynth template called MPEG2Source to open the index file. Add the audio stream -- note any delay (indicated by the filename). Use the audio skew function to set the delay (if any).... Tongiaki - It?s summer and at least up here in the Pacific Northwest that means we actually see the sun more often than usual. Games, especially board games, tend to be inside kinds of endeavors. So what?s a gamer to do? Well, partly, you add a BBQ to the gaming gathering.
read more... The Good, The Bad, And The Chaotic Neutral - Many role-playing games include a system meant to model the characters' moral compasses or beliefs (or lack thereof). But is such a mechanic really necessary in a roleplaying game? If so, what's the best way to implement it? I'll share my opinions on what works and what doesn't in my own gaming experiences; you can (and should!) do the same in the comments.

Goodbye Gleemax - According to a post by Randy Buehler, WOTC's Vice President of Digital Gaming, "Wizards of the Coast has made the decision to pull down its Gleemax social networking site in order to focus on other aspects of our digital initiatives, especially Magic Online and Dungeons & Dragons Insider. We continue to believe that fostering online community is an important part of taking care of our customers, but until we have our games up and running at a...

read more... Mixing & Matching Dungeons & Dragons - Aaaaand we're back. This time, I'm joined by my now 12 year old daughter in our discussion of mixing versions of D&D to get a more interesting game. Yes I know, we just committed heresy. Here we are, on the eve on a brand, spanking new edition of D&D (4th, for those of you keeping track) and we're talking about mixing 1st, 2nd & 3rd all into one big game. I've had people ask me how I do that and as "Newbie" (as my daughter has de... A Tale of Two Characters - A description of two characters from one of my past campaigns illustrates the topic of what it really means to depict and focus on both genders fairly and equally in your role-playing games. It also shows that if you're interested in making sure that your game gives equal time to men and women, doing so may be an easier task than you think.

read more... Confessions of a D&D Newbie - Recently, I've found myself in the unusual situation of being an experienced gamer with little experience in the game my primary group is playing - and that game happens to be D&D. Many gamers take D&D experience for granted in their new players, which can cause groups to run into trouble when that isn't the case for some players. These are a few of my experiences as a D&D newbie; knowing about them may help you when dealing with new... What Roles Do We Die For? - Large molded and painted pieces dominate Lego sets of today. They look cool, but can rarely be used for anything other than their original design purpose. The same might be said of the design components of RPGs such as Dungeons & Dragons, which has evolved quite far from its roots. The following article is a critical examination of the loss of narrative interactions in tabletop role-playing, as exemplified by D&D.
