I'm a fucking retard |
01:47
🔗
|
wp494 |
I'm back in win7 |
01:47
🔗
|
wp494 |
so my OBS tests from win10 won't transfer of course |
01:47
🔗
|
wp494 |
I couldn't be arsed to transfer them to the 10 install anyways but I digress |
01:47
🔗
|
wp494 |
and I realized that I still have PTT on for mic input |

wp494 |
dashcloud: I think I've got a good setup |
03:16
🔗
|
wp494 |
doing a second test run on 3h vhs tape now |
03:17
🔗
|
wp494 |
the issue in the first one was that I had the device set to repeat only to stream (even though it's just a local record) and not repeat to desktop |
03:17
🔗
|
wp494 |
therefore meaning that the audio would feedback |
03:17
🔗
|
wp494 |
not in the traditional sense, but it'd...repeat |
03:17
🔗
|
wp494 |
also the file size - I had it set at 5200 kbps, and I nudged it down to 3k |
03:18
🔗
|
wp494 |
so just under a 50% reduction by my estimate of taking things and dividing them by 2 |
03:18
🔗
|
wp494 |
the funny thing was that immediately before my 2nd test run, the vcr decided to fuck up the tracking |
03:18
🔗
|
wp494 |
and I thought the vhs was effed |
03:19
🔗
|
wp494 |
but I turned it off and turned it on again 10 minutes later, all is pretty much fine |
03:19
🔗
|
wp494 |
the only way I knew it was tracking was because the auto tracking indicator was going crazy |
03:20
🔗
|
wp494 |
I nuked the first test run off of the win10 HD, but if it was the tape, I could just let the hound that is known as recuva loose on the drive |
03:21
🔗
|
wp494 |
and then just re-record only for not screwed up audio |
03:21
🔗
|
wp494 |
so nothing too terribly serious either way |
03:21
🔗
|
wp494 |
anyways I'll shut up |

*sits down* |
03:25
🔗
|
wp494 |
just random tapes that I have laying around |
03:26
🔗
|
wp494 |
the first one is just some tv recordings |
03:26
🔗
|
wp494 |
circa 2007 iirc |
03:26
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
oh like a personal project and nothing to do with this channel / team thing? |
03:26
🔗
|
wp494 |
half yes, half no |
03:26
🔗
|
wp494 |
half yes because at the end of the day IA are the pros |
03:26
🔗
|
wp494 |
half no because I intend on making a guide on the wiki with OBS and the device I'm using |
03:27
🔗
|
wp494 |
said device is http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815100096 |
03:27
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
i try to volunteer for ia but they do not even reply. the second i saw the warrior appliance earlier today i started one |
03:27
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
what is obs? |
03:27
🔗
|
wp494 |
and I decided to use the premier 30 day trial so it would null shipping |
03:27
🔗
|
wp494 |
OBS = open broadcaster software |
03:27
🔗
|
wp494 |
basically like a free xsplit, if you've ever heard of xsplit |

03:28
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
cool |
03:28
🔗
|
wp494 |
OBS does external devices, but that's nothing special |
03:29
🔗
|
wp494 |
from all the vhs things that I browsed |
03:29
🔗
|
wp494 |
they came with powerdirector or some variant of it |
03:29
🔗
|
wp494 |
and I said |
03:29
🔗
|
wp494 |
"LOL NOPE, OBS" |
03:29
🔗
|
wp494 |
because 1: OBS allows for so much flexibility and |
03:29
🔗
|
wp494 |
2: I don't have an optical drive in my PC |
03:30
🔗
|
wp494 |
also 3: I don't need an optical drive in my PC since I can grab drivers off the internet |
03:31
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
can you see the output of this avermedia device in realtime on your monitor or do you just hit play on the vcr and then it starts writing to a file? |
03:31
🔗
|
wp494 |
OBS lets you see in real-time |
03:31
🔗
|
wp494 |
so yes |
03:31
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
fuck |
03:32
🔗
|
wp494 |
I can't speak for powerdirector though since optical drives are swedish to my desktop |
03:32
🔗
|
wp494 |
as in, the language |
03:32
🔗
|
wp494 |
also OBS lets you preview how things look before you start recording |
03:32
🔗
|
wp494 |
(or streaming) |
03:32
🔗
|
wp494 |
(or both) |
03:34
🔗
|
wp494 |
here's how it looks: http://i.imgur.com/hxl3oZb.png |
03:34
🔗
|
wp494 |
yes, as you can guess, it's some various PBS stuff |
03:34
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
is that a family video? your grandfather looks sick |
03:34
🔗
|
Mayonaise |
oh ok pbs |
03:35
🔗
|
wp494 |
lol |
03:35
🔗
|
wp494 |
there are 8mm tapes which I'll get to in a while afterwards |
03:36
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
what show is that? They look familiar. |
03:36
🔗
|
wp494 |
eastenders |
03:36
🔗
|
wp494 |
apparently pbs likes airing episodes from several years back like they're new |
03:37
🔗
|
wp494 |
either that or it's just prairie public that does that (the station in ND/nw MN and MB through cable) |
03:37
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
PBS does that all the time. |
03:37
🔗
|
wp494 |
okay, so it's not just PPTV specific |
03:37
🔗
|
wp494 |
finally, some confirmation |
03:38
🔗
|
wp494 |
why they don't just have several marathons of shows is beyond me |
03:38
🔗
|
wp494 |
they could probably catch up within a couple of them |
03:39
🔗
|
wp494 |
then again there might be FCC clearance that they have to deal with, so it'd probably only get them to a year or so behind |
03:39
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
the affiliate here just started showing Keeping Up Appearances, so every episode is marked as new in the tv listings. |
03:39
🔗
|
wp494 |
I dunno, I'm just some canuck who knows quite a bit about recent canuck TV but only a small bit about american tv |
03:40
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
oh its a bbc show that finaled in 1995 |
03:41
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
but brand new here. |
03:41
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
Anyway, I am also looking forward to a guide so I can do the same for family tapes. |
03:42
🔗
|
wp494 |
well wisely whatever the dcx3400-m is using as guide info ISN'T marking EE episodes as new |
03:42
🔗
|
wp494 |
I dunno if it's because PBS already showed them or what |
03:42
🔗
|
wp494 |
but the episodes were dated 2005 |
03:42
🔗
|
wp494 |
AKA just under a decade old episodes |
03:43
🔗
|
wp494 |
and I just realized that the dcx3400-m also has RCA jacks |
03:43
🔗
|
wp494 |
so I could just take it out |
03:43
🔗
|
wp494 |
consider it an "off" day for tv |
03:43
🔗
|
wp494 |
and just rip stuff |
03:43
🔗
|
wp494 |
though in an inefficient manner, but the only manner that really *works* |
03:44
🔗
|
wp494 |
because the HDD is esata |
03:45
🔗
|
wp494 |
and chances are is that neither windows, nor os x would be able to even see the file system on it |
03:45
🔗
|
wp494 |
linux *might* with the right drivers, but it'd be a PITA |
03:46
🔗
|
wp494 |
or I could just buy a tv tuner and record right on the pc I'm typing this on right now |
03:46
🔗
|
wp494 |
but I'd need to shove it either on my backup drive or the drive that I've got win10 on |
03:48
🔗
|
wp494 |
one other thing is that I'm only slightly upscaling to 720p |
03:48
🔗
|
wp494 |
1080p would just be outright retarded for vhs |
03:49
🔗
|
wp494 |
but I can scrunch down to 480 if absolutely necessary |
03:50
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
720p seems a bit much to as VHS is 480i I believe |
03:50
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
but I'd be interested to here the rational behind your decision. |
03:51
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
hear |
03:51
🔗
|
wp494 |
I'll cite this image again: http://i.imgur.com/hxl3oZb.png |
03:52
🔗
|
wp494 |
there's black bars on the sides, which is p. much unavoidable without significant alteration in obs |
03:52
🔗
|
wp494 |
so 12somethingx720 becomes 10somethingx720 if I've visualized things right |
03:53
🔗
|
wp494 |
but as for 720p, there isn't really much of a rationale |
03:53
🔗
|
wp494 |
other than "let's try and squeeze what we can, but not to the point of complete pointlessness" |
03:55
🔗

04:21
🔗
|
wp494 |
but it was from around the 60s/70s |
04:21
🔗
|
wp494 |
where VHS/betamax was pretty much the best quality you could get |
04:22
🔗
|
wp494 |
because it was 2007 episodes, they'd probably be like "yeah we'd probably take a DVD quality recording of this episode instead" since better qualities are available |
04:22
🔗
|
joepie91 |
can't hurt to upload it |

if a better quality one exists, it's superseded |

I suppose that would be okay if I could -nc only certain files. |
11:07

The ideal would be to check Cache-Control headers, save the expiration dates in some file somwhere, and check URLs against the expiration dates that were saved. |
11:09

-N is *okay* because it checks timestamps, but it still sends out HTTP requests which don't need to happen. |
