Damned Quicktime files...

Who is attached to distribute SW3? If it's Fox, then it should air on any of thier regular cable networks and broadcast channels. To narrow it, I would say the HD ones are getting it first.

Well I was forewarned that the trailer would be on tv here this morning and so set my video to record it. With my video you take your chances that it won't be all scratchy. I wasn't lucky. Ah well I could listen to it, and I was always going to run it slowly to see each scene (and it reduces the snow) so it turned out ok. Anyhow thanks Kwok for the link.

I'm sure by tomorrow night we'll be seeing higher quality Versions floating around.

Opposed to those too, eh?

At least Media Player Classic can play them (with proper codecs installed, such as from K-lite Codec Pack)), so no need to install some stupid program from Apple...

Addendum: I ran a good tape through the machine for a few seconds and it cleared it up, so I have a nice copy of it. I'm sorry I don't have any of that newfangled equipment for copying tapes to a movie file.

Edit: oh, I gathered the disatisfaction with quicktime was the inability to save the movie.

Easiest way is to just have a TV-in card in your computer. Some video cards have them built in, or you get a separate card. No tapes necessary.

Nah, they have no choice but to be saved, due to Firefox being set to never play them in the browser. It's more about the overall poor quality of the format and annoyance with Apple trying to ram it down our throats at every chance they get for years... Good thing the encrypted codec format was cracked...

I try to save them but it never lets me. I can copy from my internet directory, but if I try to play them without visiting the website they come from I get sound but no picture.
