Title: Vidcast # 300 - Gems
Post by: Rico on October 10, 2010, 02:25:06 PM
Got the Vidcast up now for big, show #300.  Came out pretty good I think.  A few videos I had to rework/convert, but overall you guys did great.  Thanks very much to all those that sent in videos for this one.  Got about eight total.  Show is about 450 meg, so it's a big download.  I'll get the feed up soon too, but for now, here's the direct link to the show.  Enjoy!

And here's a little wallpaper I just put together from the stars of this vidcast.  You guys all rock!

Guessing you had troubles with mine?  Apologies if you did, next time I'll put more work into mine.  I'm just getting used to video editing so I couldn't work out the kinks with Sony Vegas this time around. 

Can't wait to watch what was no doubt an awesome show!

Just had to convert it from .mov to .mp4.  But no real big deal.

Why wouldn't you be able to play it?  Do you only use a phone?  No computer??

No computer, not for about 4 years. My two Nokia devices are 2 and 4 years old - sometimes choke on the latest video depending on encoding I guess.

May think about getting a small laptop in the near future, in fact have saved a best buy ad/photo you (rico) posted recently to refer to / repost in the future along with some questions about current laptop offerings and buying advice.... But that's for another topic probably sometime next year :)

Edit - well I certainly frenched up the formatting of this article - oh well <grin>

Nice Meds - I want one too.

Sorry to be so nosey, I'm a graphic artist.

Great show, Rico!  Congrats on 300!

Everyone did a fantastic job with their reviews.  Here's to the next 300!  :eekout

Thanks!  Yeah, it was a nice range of videos to have.  Have to do more of these in the future.  Takes longer to do a video cast, but it's a lot of fun.  Now I have to talk a guest host into doing a vidcast sometime!  :)

That was work. WiFi was rubbish in the hotel too so I'm glad I took my own entertainment. What I missed was my video cable. If I'd had that I could have played the podcast on the TV in the room from the iPhone.

That was fun. A lot of things I'd never heard of so now I need to remember what they all were to go and try and find them.

I was a bit worried by one thing though. How could you ever believe Meds had even visited London with an accent like that!! ;) I mean, really!!

You confirmed it I think but when someone mentioned Andrew Powell, I assume it was the same guy as did the orchestral arrangements for so much of The Alan Paraons Project music (probably my all time favourite collection of musicians). From memory, Rick M attributed some of his influences to them too. Small world...

As I said, a good video cast and a pleasant way to fill an otherwise dull hotel evening.
