Ugh. So far so bad. I'm getting unwatchable bandwidth, even on the regular SD version. Just checked and my downline bandwidth is 25Mbps. Ah, I see a workaround. Just pause it until the red bar fills up it's buffer.

 

[Stargazer]

Do you mean 25 kbps? I have watched YouTube videos with 0.5 Mbps and had streaming video.

Good luck with a better microphone next year. I gave up halfway thru.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I didn't have time to sync the audio from the recorder in my hand to the video. You can hear the good audio in the Scottie Chat which is available in the Podcast.

 

[RandallA]

Yeah, the sound was really bad I had to stop too. I'll look for the audio in the Podcast.

 

[dfergie]

My Bad... I was the cameraman and soundman all in one... my Camera catches sound pretty good in the wild, but in a crowd like that it caught everything around...(we saw newer models with an external mic jack at the show, in fact the Manufacturer took ramy and myselfs pic's with their cameras )

 

[dfergie]

Imagine, taking the average video camera to a football game and place yourself in the middle of the crowd, that is close to what it is like on the floor of the enclosed buildings CES is in...

Scott - Shotgun Mic or Hyper-cardioid rolled off (hi-pass) at 150hz !!!

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

To be honest I didn't know the interview was video taped until Dfergie sent me the video.

 

[SmokeFan14]

Was it just me or did Charlie seem like he would rather have been anywhere than in front of Scott. He seems like he's got the personality of a flat tire.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

People kept yelling for him during the interview.

Charlie was supposed to be with us live (as was Mark Jackson) at the Scottie Chat but one of his meetings was moved into that time slot. So thats why we had to pre record it.

Charlie was actually worried about the noise in the hall and we walked around trying to find a quieter place, but ended up back in the Dish booth.

I appreciate him being there and coming up to me to do the interview. He always goes out of his way for us here at SatelliteGuys.

Don, I may be able to put this into the project I'm working on for the Scotty chat. The audio is already cleaned up. Syncing is a bity of a challenge as Scott's Mac audio seems to ve free run and not locked. That means the audio drifts and goes out of sync about every 30 seconds. I have the rest of the program synced manually now but it would really complete the project with your video (picture only) It would replace the stills I am currently using.
If I don't get too many interruptions I should have it done Thursday night.

If you have a YouTube account, you can tell it to always show the high-quality version, if available obviously, instead of starting the std-quality and then re-starting the better version.

That would be Great! Scott of course has a version I sent to him...

Don,

That's awesome, I cant wait to see the finished product.

 

[dfergie]

I have created an AVC HD disc of just the clips I took from CES that were Dish/Sling related... Am going to do the same for the rest of the Show...
