couple of quickies?

1) Can anyone recommend a video mixing program that will allow me to mix 3-D DVD video. Being that I will be mixing already produced DVD Field Sequential NTSC output (I presume?), {eg: it already alternates between one eye}, then the other, it should be possible to just treat it like a continuous video stream. That should allow me to use a standard video mix program shouldn't it? Probably get some left/right sync problems, but moving the edit by one frame should correct that. Any thought/suggestions from anyone? Making the 5.1 surround soundtrack is already proving very labour intensive, but hopefully worth it in the end. 2) I will be floating over the pond next week, so can anyone recommend some current good, alternative music shops in London (and/or South West UK). I'm sure there are many so I'd best to take the answer off-air. Many thanks in advance, cheers bbroo

Re: [Orb] OT slightly mp3 shortening

Thats the thing about mp3 they are an inherently "lossy" compression scheme, each time you reencode them they lose fidelity and less true to the source from which they originated. Another thing that sucks about mp3 is that the format includes something like .25 seconds of silence at the track breaks so when you are listening to a show you get those annoying hiccups between songs. If I were you I would look into the more stable compression formats that are out there such as SHN and FLAC. . . >From: "Alan" <alanevil(a)bellsouth.net> >Reply-To: What were the skies like when you were >young?<orb(a)mailman.xmission.com> >To: <orb(a)mailman.xmission.com>,<fsollist(a)yage.net> >Subject: [Orb] OT slightly mp3 shortening >Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2003 21:21:27 -0400 > >Have any of you run into the problem of finding your mp3s to be chopped off >at the end.

here's another technical question for the team: suppose i really like one of the TeaTime sets and want to burn it to CD so that i can listen to it as i take a walk. Nero tells me it cannot open the RAM files. is there a way i can convert the RAM to MP3, which i know that Nero can handle, or should i go about this in a different way? any advice? PJK please don't hate me because i can't type..... --- All the cool kids are doing it: HTTP://www.EvilSponge.org

...thrash, maybe you are alright after all....nah, ....I am sorry Menelik303(a)aol.com once you sign on, you are on this list for ever, a sort of eternal hell. The list will seek out your new e-mail address and continue spamming you. Sorry bud, but YOU did sign up for eternity. What do you mean you didn't you read the small print. ....where did I read recently "the artist formally known a thrash will now be know as (something like) "00.00.00.01 of silence" : ha funny stuff ....I agree, anyone that bothers to run an FTP site to provide us with music is alright in my book. .....Mr S....she stuck around for 10 years without you tying the knot. She is this months orb list award winner. .....thats more than enough spam from me (sorry mentally starting the vacation early), damn job, {promise I will post something about the orb (or the erb) next time}. .....I wonder what the e-mail trackers in Homeland Security make of all of us? They probably think it's all coded messages. cheers bb

I've got a big stack of cd-r's of Cage's piece sitting in my kitchen... at least they act like that when you try to play them. They're in my kitchen because... well... I'm not sure why they're in that particular place but that's where they go before I make windmills out of them. They're very pretty looking when they spin in the sun... www.psychicreform.com Change your mind. "Look at the past 25 years. We went downhill, and if people don't realize it, they don't have their fucking eyes on ... In 1960, when I came out of prison as an ex-convict, I had more freedom under parolee supervision than there's available to an average citizen in America right now... God almighty, what have we done to each other?" --Merle Haggard (June, 2002)
