Title: Local Across The 48's
Post by: lfmusiclover on September 04, 2007, 11:23:34 PM
Ok, we are going to be doing our own Local Across The 48's. The question is, when would you guys like to do it? Let me know what day/s are good for you guys. Any day is good for me so I really don't care when we do it. I haven't been in touch with Chazz yet, but I will ATTEMPT to get in touch with him shortly. The truth is, I seldom see him on AIM, on TWCC, or anywhere else for that matter, so I don't know how long it may take to get a response.

Great. I look forward to it. As for a time, any time will work for me, too. If I'm not around, I can set my tuner to record at anytime I wish. :D

Anytime works for me. I can always set the VCR to record, but I'd rather be there at the moment. I hope it's not going to be between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM (Pacific Time), since I'll be at school.

Post by: lfmusiclover on September 04, 2007, 11:56:36 PM
Since most of you guys are at school during the day, it will likely be sometime in the evening. Probably 8PM Eastern/5 Pacific. Let me know if that's alright.

This is gonna sound kinda odd...but could we do it at a :57 past (even if that means 7:57)?  Then we get ID's too.

I was thinking the same thing. It would be cool to see everybody's station ID. Though the station ID will not show at 7:57 PM ET because Storm Stories. 8:57 PM ET, 9:57 PM ET, or 10:57 PM ET would work better.

I think 8:57 PM would be the best time. :yes:

Let's do it at 8:57 pm! When's the date? And can I record with satellite? It'll show the DirecTv station ID.
Title: Re: Local Across The 48's
Post by: beanboy89 on September 06, 2007, 12:27:22 AM
Yes. 8:57 PM ET (5:57 PM PT) sounds like a fine time to do it, and maybe 9:57 PM ET (6:57 PM PT) as a backup in case we get a satellite LF? So what day should we do this on? Thursday would be too short notice, and I'd say steer clear of Friday and the weekends because people may have plans. So sometime next week?

I hope I don't forget. :)

If I remember I'll record my Marlton/Mount Holly IntelliStar, and I might also timer record my VCR over at my dad's house in Bensalem, PA to record the IntelliStar over there (though I probably won't send that in until at least Sunday the 16th, since I'm only at his house on weekends/holidays).

I'll be able to record the IntelliStar here in Lancaster. I might be able to get the IntelliStar back in Hanover if I can figure out how to program the VCR. :p

I'm not getting into all of that. If you can't record it on your computer or something, then don't bother. I don't feel like messing around with video tape.

This doesn't apply to me, but I feel that a clarification is needed.

Are you saying no to VHS, period? Or are you stating that you will not deal with transferring VHS to a PC? (IE let the owner do it)

I'm assuming the latter. I'm guessing Gary doesn't want to get hundreds of VHS tapes in the mail and them having to spend all the time to convert them all to his PC. :p

Right. If you want to record to VHS and convert it to your pC yourself, be my guest. But I don't want people sending VHS to me. This is something that was frequently done with Chazz, so I just want to make sure that people don't expect the same of me.

Yep, tomorrow at 8:57 eastern, 7:57 central, 6:57 pacific.

Anything not uploaded on this site will not be included in the LOT48's.

I've noticed alot of VCR comments, so once again, please, no video tapes. If you want to convert it to your PC yourself, that's fine. But I WILL NOT be accepting VHS tapes.

Is that correct?
Yes; there are four time zones in the continental US (eastern, central, mountain, and pacific), thus 8:57 eastern equates to 5:57 pacific.

I said I was going to do it but I have satellite and I thought satellite contribs don't work. I can go to YouTube, capture the satellite lf with my webcam and put in my video description "Courtesy of the Local Across the 48s project-TWC Today" if that works for Gary.

The date of the project is tonight, not three weeks or a month, or even two weeks from now. I don't remember people doing this when Chazz did the LOT48's. He had all his videos the night of the project. Frankly, I'm not dedicated enough to this to go to that great of a length. I STILL have not gotten an accurate count of whose participating. I THINK I have five or six participants, not including myself, so this project is BARELY worth taking the time to do.

I'm very close to just scrapping the whole damn thing.

I do live in Ottawa, and we are EST.. how ever, I might have been in a different time zone when I read it, maybe I just refered the time to what time I was in and remembered 7:57PM ..

That happened to me as well.  I simply broke down and uploaded the video to my own webspace:

http://www.andrew-turnbull.net/new/twc-xl-091007.asf

The video is an 8.5MB ASF (Windows Media), which I'll probably take down after a few days to save bandwidth.  The forecast in question was taken from a Princeton, WV-area cable headend with an XL.

Doesn't work either. I'm guessing the file is too big, but it's only 8 MB, which isn't too big at all. I don't want to make it too small or the quality won't turn out too good.

Anyway, I'll just upload it on my FileFront account for the time being. Here's a link. This video is from Marlton, NJ
