[01:20] yo ho ho [01:20] http://youtu.be/pPC-OlMknyc [01:20] look what i did! [01:32] says it is not ready for viewing yet [01:32] VonGuard: please give me the original video files if you can [01:33] well [01:33] only cause detail can be lose cause of youtube encoding and i have no idea what original resolution was [01:33] the originals are like... 22 gigs [01:33] i think i will torrent up the mp4's i converted [01:33] the original is off betacam [01:33] direct capture [01:34] oh shit not ready sorry [01:34] http://youtu.be/wCwQf9_V4dk [01:34] that one is ready [01:34] the one i paasted is processing [01:34] godane, i can't really torrent up the original i dont think [01:35] i can torrent up the mp4s and throw them on underground gamer [01:35] thats good [01:36] how big are the mp4 versions? [01:36] 500 megs a piece [01:37] they look just about the same. there'sa rtifacts and gunk from the tape, not the capture or convert [01:37] ok [01:38] i just prefer to get as close to original video files [01:38] well, i can torrent the 20 gig original [01:38] if you want [01:38] got a UG account? [01:40] yes [01:40] 20gb original [01:41] is that the full series? [01:41] or just one file? [01:45] probably 1 file [01:45] Raw video is very large [01:45] a 15 minute music video is easily 400gb [01:46] yeah raw [01:46] the 20 gig file is all 3 episodes [01:47] with commercial pauses and color squib [01:48] just give me the 500mb mp4s [01:48] ok, i can do that [01:49] gimme a drop box or something, and i'll just zip and upload [01:49] you gonna upload to archive? [01:49] IA will take originals [01:49] :P [01:49] lolol [01:49] really? [01:49] yeah, pretty sure about that [01:49] i will be able to upload them [01:49] well, the originals require a torrent [01:50] i will make one torrent file, you both get it, then you choose inside the torrent which ones to download [01:50] ok [01:50] for now do the mp4 ones [01:51] doing em both [01:51] in one bit torrent [01:51] where do you want the torrent file sent? [01:51] i guess email works for that [01:58] you can just put in up on underground gamer [01:58] ok [02:09] 20gb is no sweat for archive.org, and they'll auto-encode lq streaming versions [02:10] if there's no real quality difference it's not worth making a big fuss but just fyi [02:11] https://archive.org/details/201301211FFW7upload100GBtest [02:15] you know what, i am not gonna be able to do this tonight [02:16] i;'ll upload later. UG requires ziupping, zipping avis takes forever [02:16] you can zip without compression [02:16] zip --store [03:00] you also don't have to zip at all [03:00] videos normally never compress good anyways [03:04] whats the channel for punchfork [03:04] guess i got banned from some reason [06:07] consumerist.com stopped updating on February 15th [06:07] normally updated several times daily [06:07] might be worth a look [06:10] maybe not a panic siterip but precautionary... a while back they removed all user comments once they disabled commenting entirely. quite recently they restored all those old comments, but given the sudden removal at first, I wouldn't put it past them for the entire site to suddenly just disappear. [06:26] I will setup a slow mapper. I need to try my new multi-threaded scraper [08:44] Yeah, good catch [10:03] consumerist doesn't update on weekends, and monday was a holiday [10:04] lots of good information on there though, we should crawl it regularly [10:05] We should. [10:37] alard: Hello. Is there anything I can do for Posterous? [10:42] 1. join #preposterus [10:42] 2. possibly pull more user ID's however I'm unsure if theres any left [15:14] whoever mentioned it the other day, http://pdsimage.wr.usgs.gov/ is back up [15:16] holy, won't be easy saving... http://pdsimage.wr.usgs.gov/downloads/Clementine/ - has at least 50 x 400 MiB files [15:16] you're adorable [15:17] maybe, but my space is limited [15:17] can save maximum 50 GiB [15:45] norbert79: lol don't worry about it [15:45] your mentioning it is a start. [15:46] Smiley: Couldn't resist checking first... Makes saving always complicated if the material goes above 20-30 GiB :) [15:47] yeah sure :) [15:48] "Just put it in the cloud! (TM)" [16:15] i got the gamepro mp4 episodes [16:19] also i found the 6 first episodes of gamepro tv from 1991 [16:20] also looks like i don't need to upload the youtube version of gamers heart japan [16:21] found it on g4tv.com when downloading 52166 id video [16:30] i'm uploading gphoria 2006 now [17:08] hey godane and balrog- [17:08] http://www.underground-gamer.com/details.php?id=62061#comm575200 [17:08] go get it [17:09] i got it [17:09] just the mp4 files anyways [17:10] good [17:10] VonGuard: these rips must be from broadcast types right? [17:11] only cause the date is in front and color grid [17:18] someone give me the torrent, ill get the broadcast files :P [17:20] it's ip-locked, you need an account [17:32] i will be uploading them soon [17:33] at least the m4v files [17:34] i'm also seeing to it that you guys get icons series [17:34] i know there are a few upload but its not much [17:41] uploaded: http://archive.org/details/Gphoria_2006_Awards_VHS_-_G4TV_Special_featuring_X-Play_08.08.06_Unedited [19:13] http://kotaku.com/the-90s/ [19:32] VonGuard: how may episodes of gamepro TV are there? [19:37] thats it [19:37] all done [19:37] 3 total [19:38] the 1991 version has a lot more [19:38] like 12 i think [19:38] notice episode 3 of 1996 has a preview of some forthcoming game called Tomb Raider [19:44] i thought there was more [19:45] some part of me thinks it was on USA Network back in 1997 or something [19:47] VonGuard: I'm save the g4tv.com videos [19:47] https://archive.org/details/g4video-web [19:48] it was on SportsTV [19:48] maybe there were more [19:48] this is all we have [19:48] it was in a box of videos in the gamepro archives [19:48] there were no more videos of the tv show [19:48] lots of focus group videos, frankly [19:48] some game previews on vhs [19:48] and this betacam tape [19:48] ok [19:51] now... the prototypes.... [19:51] that's another ball of wax [19:51] VonGuard: i helped saved bad influence and game masters [19:51] and i suppose magazine cover disks are somewhat interesting? [19:52] yes [19:52] nice! [19:52] we have full cover disk archive on archive.org [19:52] Jason Scott started that one [19:52] Bad Influence: https://archive.org/details/bad-influence [19:53] ok, cause i have the cd's for CGW 2000 - 2001 [19:53] check to see if we have that [19:54] we have 2000-12 and 2001-01 [19:54] 2000-04 [19:55] 2001-04 [19:55] ok [19:55] 2001-07 [19:55] great i dont need to do that then [19:55] i actually did the disks 2000 - 2001 [19:59] anything not in here we need https://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3Acgw-coverdiscs&sort=-publicdate [20:36] [5~[5~[6~I' [20:36] I'm energized to do the archive.org to wiki bridge. [20:36] hey SketchCow [20:37] hey SketchCow [20:37] I mean, I'm about to go out [20:37] late [20:37] Not in New Zealand. [20:37] i'm uploading gamepro tv [20:37] oh you got the raw? [20:37] balrog- is getting the raw i believe [20:37] i don't have the raw [20:38] well he's getting the raw [20:38] it's slightly better than mp4 [20:38] i'm just uploading the mp4 files so archive.org can take it [20:38] also it would take more then a day to upload 16gb [20:40] lol yeah [20:44] uploaded: https://archive.org/details/GameProTV-Ep1-1996 [20:46] nice, thanks!@ [21:13] at this point I'm not doing so yet. However I have the bandwidth to upload. [21:13] 3 MB/s up :) [21:13] nice [21:28] So, I don't know if ANYONE wants this shit job but: [21:30] - It would help a lot to look at http://awesome.commodore.me/downloads/magazine/ and compare to http://archive.org/details/computermagazines and then just e-mail me a list of which ones we don't have. [21:30] I can then just do the pull and push. [21:31] SketchCow: I emailed you earlier. lemme see if i can rope my friend into at least looking at that ;) [21:31] SketchCow, we were coordinating a physical version of this discussion on the igda preservation list [21:31] red_beard: Righto. I can do that [21:32] A physical version? [21:32] yeah [21:32] we were talking about who had what issues at what museums [21:32] No, I mean explain before I leave over here [21:32] of which magazine [21:32] Oh, I see. [21:35] Well, good luck on it. [21:35] I get the scribe going up at the poughkeepsie location when I get back and then I start scanning things. [21:36] And to be honest, this TOSEC thing looks like a month's worth of work. [21:36] OK, off to the NZ thing, back in 10 hours or something, then on for a few hours. [21:37] (TOSEC is all in .rar format all the way down and I have to convert it to .tar or .zip) [21:37] It's 104gb rar which tells me it's probably frigging huge. [21:37] later! [22:46] 27-year old technologist suddenly dies leaving his web site status in question. (http://www.varesano.net/projects/hardware/FreeIMU) What do I use to (1) archive the site, WARC? and then (2) can I upload that site archive to IA? Sorry if this is noobish question. [22:48] turnkit: wget (1.14) can archive in WARC. [22:48] And for 2) yes! [22:51] most linux distros have an older version of wget so you might have to compile it from source [23:25] "what could ever change in wget after all?" [23:49] heh [23:49] like curl but more [23:51] fwiw, debian unstable has wget warc
