All, Please check out the latest updates on www.saabvideos.com It seems like some nice folks are posting to video.google.com now which is great! SG > It seems like some nice folks are posting to video.google.com now which is great! I noticed that I already had some of those videos from your site--hope it works out. Your work was a great gift to the community. > > It seems like some nice folks are posting to video.google.com now which is great! > > > I noticed that I already had some of those videos from your site--hope > it works out. Your work was a great gift to the community. I beg your pardon? Seems like you're simply applauding yourself. Your clips are way too big. That's why you have a bandwidth problem.

I for one appreciate that he kept the original quality.

If you were addressing me, I assume you got pissed at a pub and didn't know what you were talking about. > If you were addressing me, I assume you got pissed at a > pub and didn't know what you were talking about. ... No, that's my job around here ... Good effort SG. I've taken no end of sh.t over my "contribution to the SAAB enthusiast" website, too! Bloody peasants! :) Paul 1989 900 Turbo S http://saab.go.dyndns.org/ > > It seems like some nice folks are posting to video.google.com now which is great! > > > I noticed that I already had some of those videos from your site--hope > it works out. Your work was a great gift to the community. I am looking for "quotations" from those that were happy with the availability to such videos for the Saab Community at large. Could I get a quote from you or anyone else? SG > I am looking for "quotations" from those that were happy with the availability to such videos for the Saab Community at large. > > Could I get a quote from you or anyone else? I am not sure what you mean by quotations, but all I can say is that I am happy to have these videos. I would never have known about their existence were it not for your web site. I have downloaded all of them, and I am burning them to DVDs for friends who don't have broadband or aren't computer savvy. Ted Yurkon > > I am looking for "quotations" from those that were happy with the availability to such videos for the Saab Community at large. > > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > aren't computer savvy. > Ted Yurkon Ted, What you are doing by downloading ALL of the videos and burning them onto DVDs for friends is exactly what I was hoping someone would do to ensure that the footage is around for years to come! Way to go! I take it that you are encoding the videos to DVD format for normal DVD players, correct? Thank you very much! SG > I take it that you are encoding the videos to DVD format for normal DVD players, correct? Yup, that's one reason I'm glad they aren't .mov files because I don't have the means to do that yet. I'm converting them for normal DVD players because not all people have a computer for viewing the files, or at least not a very good computer. Unfortunately, the files grow quite a bit when converting, and take twice as long to burn, but DVDs are cheap nowadays:-) Anyway, I like the sound from are big-screen TV much better myself.

It has taken me over 500+ hours to convert all of these videos from RAW to DIVX(Mpeg-4) already. If I convert any of them to quicktime, I wonder how well that will be and if the quality will degrade any. By the way, I will need quicktime pro if I want to play ANY Saab videos on the new Ipod Video because it ONLY plays quicktime in video format. I also don't believe that there is a Quicktime Pro for Linux either. SG >By the way, I will need quicktime pro if I want to play ANY Saab videos >on the new Ipod Video because it ONLY plays quicktime in video format. >I also don't believe that there is a Quicktime Pro for Linux either. No need to buy Quicktime Pro... Have a look at the free Videora iPod video converter (Windows only I'm afraid) seems able to convert everything I have thrown at it so far (including a video I pulled down from the Saab Videos site) to play on both my iPod and Palm PDA. Find it here - http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/ Cheers, Andy  SignatureAndrew Sinclair http://www.smellycat.org You might want to look into making them available as Bittorrent files to take some of the load off of your bandwidth. > You might want to look into making them available as Bittorrent files > to take some of the load off of your bandwidth. Ludwig, Normal people don't need to be bothered with anything besides bittorrent anyways. It will be difficult to grasp for some people that they need Divx and how to install it, etc. That will hard enough. SG |
