RE: NTSC VHS to disc

If you have a PC, or laptop..


Pinnacle Dazzle

..Will get the footage in. This would mean that your VHS player would have to output NTSC though.


Then I use tmpgenc plus
To encode the video to PAL or NTSC complaint DVD files, then use An older version of this

To make and Burn the disc. EDIT! Look as if the second poduct there does it all now!

RE: Must see animation

Quote:
Heh do like these sort of shorts. Did you ever see the one where the general is creating paintings out of people?


That is a corker! Is that the one where they drop the soldiers form a great height and some goon animates the splatted bodies and dances around?

RE: Weird home shower problem.. help*

It turns out the wife had been fiddling with black taps under the bolier to get the pressure down as it was in the red. That`s when the problem started. so I`ve got to figure out what tap does what to get everything back to normal.

RE: Weird home shower problem.. help*

The shower worked fine until we had the bathroom re decorated and the shower disconnected. It`s one of those big shower heads coming from the ceiling with a tap that goes left for cold right for hot. 2 pipes connect to it . 1 hot pipe one cold. There are loads of black taps on the bottom of the boiler.. could one of them deal with water pressure ?

Weird home shower problem.. help*

To have a hot shower in my house, you have to turn the cold tap on full, in the kitchen downstairs. What the heck is happening? Any ideas anyone? Is it to do with my boiler? It`s a Baxi combi, about 3 years old.

We found this out because the shower, after having the bathroom renovated, was just luke warm, but went hot when the washing machine was on.. so we figured it was to do with the cold tap.

If anyone can point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. My water bill is going to be sky-high otherwise!

RE: insane german safety video

Ah, it`s good to see the old web memes coming back. Saw the safety video about 4 years ago. It`s a cracker isn`t it. One of the funniest things I`ve seen :D

RE: James Cameron`s Avatar

yep, good points.

Still.. I can`t help thinking the movie looks like a 360 game and Cameron is past his best.

I`m sure I will eat my words when I watch it on Blu ray.

RE: This will make me turn to piracy....

The only games I have ever bought which cost more than £40 come with a statue and extra discs, or a helmet! The price for Modern warfare 2 at £55 is a no go area for me. I`ll wait till next august to buy it. There`ll be dozens in the second hand bins then.. and the price will have dropped too for a new copy. .

RE: An Australian Joke Too Far - Australian Manuelgate?

well, I found it funny. But then.. like ANY comedy.. It`s going to upset someone. I find Brasseye hysterical, etc etc.. I don`t think there are any taboos left..

And yes, I emailed the BBC and complained as to why Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand were treated so badly by the BBC , and demanded their reinstatement! SO.. what have we learned?

That I have a very wide margin for humour. :D

RE: Cantona and his new film

I am not a football fan, have no idea how it works, but about.. god.. a fair few years ago, I flicked onto a late night sports show, showing off some goals, and Cantona was at least half way up the pitch and kicked the ball in a supernatural curve straight into the back of the net. quickly turning around..he seemed as shocked by it as the crowd.. I`ll never forget that. I assumed all footballers could do that, so watched football for the next month.. never saw anything like Cantona again.. so gave up..

RE: OMG! OMG! OMG! New Ghostbusters game!

EDGE have given it a very good review ending with a 7. Saying in conclusion (and this is from memory..)

"This would have been the best video game movie tie-in EVER MADE, but it`s a little too short, and as such is a damn good effort"
