I attended a local book signing for In the Arena: An Autobiography when it was released. Not really being enamored by celebrities and never having attended a book signing before, I was unsure of what to expect. I arrived about an hour early and was amazed at the amount of people waiting in line...

I thought She's Leaving Home was very good. In fact the whole Sgt. Pepper Medley was very good. -Gary

Melinda's performance last night was one of the best I've ever seen on AI. Even the band seems to play better when she performs. Regards, -Gary

Thanks Ken! I'm going to give it a try. -Gary

I was interested if anyone has any experience with Simpletech's 2.5 external USB 2.0 hard drives. I'm interested in archiving captured HD mpegs of this season of 24 on one of their 80 gig drives. I'm curious if HD playback performance would be impaired by connecting it to my desktop USB 2.0...

Lee, I’ve been kicking around the same question for a year now and finally took the plunge. I just built my first HTPC. My knowledge of PCs is limited so I started with a stock PC HP Pavillion model A1616N (PC only) PentiumD 820 Dual Core 2.8 GHz 1 gig memory 300 watt power supply...

I began capturing The Sound Of Music and after two commercial breaks I stopped the process. It was painful to watch such careful framing destroyed by ABC's cropped version. The greatest disgrace came a bit later, while singing Do Re Me, two of the Von Trapp children were singing their...

It was only fitting that last night's episode was season 6 episode 9 because it blew. -Gary

After that the disc works correctly. Regards, -Gary

from the mind of Rodney Dangerfield: ...and my dentist is no bargin either, I told him, "Hey Doc, my teeth are all yellow." He told me to wear a brown necktie. -Gary

My humble opinion: Taylor is the best entertainer Idol has spawned to date. If he doesn't get poisoned by unyielding record executives, I believe he will succeed to high levels because he appeals to many demographics. He can be a double threat both in the recording studio and more...

Hail to the Chief! :) -Gary

Kevin, As stated above, newer players will play most recordable media, including dual-layer media. Quality media is very important to insure good burns and compatible playback. There is plenty of up-to-date information available from media vendors regarding media/burner/player...

I was disappointed with the lack of direction of SMALLVILLE last season. Now with this season's turn of events, SMALLVILLE is at a point where it can either play it safe or explore new ground. The Lana/Clark stuff has to end. I was watching an episode from season two and it was the same old...

I agree, an excellent episode last night. I enjoy this show very much. -Gary

Dave, I've burned many dual-layer discs with Nero 6 and just upgraded to Nero 7 and haven't had a failure yet. I've only used the Verbatim brand that have been on sale lately. I burned the first four episodes of 24 (sans commercials) using Ulead VideoStudio 9. The mpeg 2 files were...

A SMALLVILLE/SUPERNATURAL night sounds like a good combination. It reminds me of the old SMALLVILLE/ANGEL Wednesday nights. A pair of HD shows, one bright and colorful; the other dark and moody. I hope it happens. -Gary

This back-handed comment is uncalled for. It should be deleted and the poster reprimanded. -Gary

A man walking down the street saw a sign in a bar window that read - PIANO PLAYER WANTED So the man went into the bar and applied for the job. As part of the interview, the bar owner asked the man to play something on the piano for him. Obligingly, the man sat down at the piano and began to...

Steve, I’m not familiar with Beyond TV but I’ll assume you are capturing in MPEG-2 format, which is DVD compliant. If so, give TMPGEnc MPEG Editor a try. http://www.pegasys-inc.com/en/product/tme.html It is the fastest and smoothest MPEG editor I’ve ever used. As long as you capture in...
