Recently, I decided to try out the DVR in the MicroHD. Now that I have the files (dvr-ms), I'm looking for a good piece of software to edit/burn them. So far I found "DVD Creator" from Daniusoft. However it only has a simple editor in it. Before buying software "that I think might work", I'd like to ask for your recomendations.

I'd like to record my favorite music videos, cut/paste my favorites into another file, edit them if necessary, then burn them to a DVD/DVD-DL as necessary. Thanks in advance for your expert guidance.

I make Blu-Ray discs of everything now, even when it's standard definition content. The BD standard is far more flexible regarding the structure of the content stream than DVD is. This means far less re-encoding. As noted above, TS Doctor is the best tool for merging and error checking.

Master Anole - I have made some progress. I used the trial version of TS Doctor to fix and join the files from the MicroHD. For editing, I used the Danuisoft Video Editor. It sure does take allot of time to throw out the videos I don't want. The program is easy to use. If I remember right I paid $39 dollars for it. It has all the common output file types, including DVD. So, I'm going to make a test DVD to see what it looks like upscaled on my Sony Bravia XBR9. If it looks like crap then I'm not going to waste my time trying to make them. I'm still plagued by some kind of interference on c band. I have really strong signals on most satellites but I have dropout problems. Signal will be 76% then drops out for a few seconds. This happens on all my c band satellites.

Thanks for the info Tron. I built a server just for audio/video work. I have a large selection of vinyl and I've remastered and digitized some of it to CD. They came out really well ... very happy with my software (Magix). For a turntable I'm using a Kenwood KD-500, 3009 SME Tonearm, Blue Point moving coil cartridge, HK Citation Preamp. I have 2 BD Writers in the server. I read on one and burn on the other. That way I don't have to go out to the rack in the garage to change disc's. TS Doctor does a wonderful job of fixing everything. I'm having trouble with the Wondershare Video Editor. The latest version wont install on my server. So they're trying to get that figured out!

I respect your passion for this, but I can't imagine what on TV, with all the reruns available, is worth this effort. For videos created of family get-togethers perhaps. I find I never get to the end of recorded stuff I want to see even for the first time. Just think of all the DX you're missing on the ham bands while you're doing this!

Many years ago, I made DVDs of Formula One races, even to the point of printing unique graphics on the discs for each race.
Each had a unique menu, using the race track drawing as a background (frame capture).
I shared them with a few friends at the time, but today they are useless to me.
Not something I'd ever watch again.
.
Rare is the time I re-watch a series.
But I have friends with different views.
.
Now days I preserve a lot of video on my server.
While -I- don't watch it, it's there if others might be interested.
.
Well, there is one Japanese series I recorded off a local TV channel that's so funny I have watched it 3-4 times, but that's just one out of many hundred! ;)
You never know today, what might be desirable tomorrow.

I'm an archivist myself, I record programming that might be remotely interesting for safe-keeping. My friends always ask why I collect programming that I rarely if ever watch. If I ever want to see it, I have it.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
