5:00p Can someone please explain?
Why I can dl at a 50 minute program and it is roughly 350mb in size and is an .avi, and that a 16 minute clip from my camera, also an .avi, is 1.68 gigs?
Megaupload doesn't want to cooperate, either. I did upload the first longish clip and got two links. The download link won't work unless you have a premium account because: "The file that you're trying to download is larger than 1 GB. Only premium users are entitled to download files larger than 1 GB from Megaupload."
The second link is this, and that sounds like a youtube type viewing experience? But it says that "This video is unavailable." Huh. Maybe it will play for someone else?
Instant video link: http://www.megavideo.com/?d=GCON7GJK
So, it looks like it's back to youtube and figuring out how to cut the talk into less than 10 minutes bits. Or, someone can tell me what I need to convert the video to to make the size less than 1 gig.
Help!
Off to work to be abused by that new computer program at work.

12:14p update
I was a bad girl and went to bed last night. Tired. I'm getting Megaupload to hold the files, but it's taking longer than I wish it would. And I work tonight and have to go take a nap. I'll try to post something in a few hours, but it may have to wait until morning when I get home. Just to keep track of all the stuff, I'm copying what I will use at youtube.
I really do hate technology at times....

So, patience, Grasshopper. I have to work for three nights. This will either trickle in or I'll get it sorted out on Friday night.
Apologies.

9:32p Bummer
I was trying to upload to Youtube the crappy quality video I shot at the con of Michael Shanks' panel. Turns out they now have a 10 minute limit. Great. I'm gonna have to figure out how to cut the footage into smaller segments. This might take a while....
The con was a lot of fun, btw. I took notes. I'm currently enjoying an evening of TV with Mom. We've watched Desperate Housewives, Dexter, Ugly Betty, House and now Castle. Merlin is next. THEN, I will try to figure out how to mess with Windows Movie Maker.
The video is out of focus. I was at the back of the room, trying to hide what I was doing because they don't allow vid to be shot. Anyway, the sound is okay. And Michael was very entertaining.
Also, sad news about the lizard. ( Read more... )

2:01a Ian Anderson at The Grove in Anaheim
Ian was joined on stage by guitarist Florian Ophale, John O'Hara--keyboards, David Goodier--bass player, Mark Mondsir--drums and Meena Bhasin on violin. The songs were mostly Jethro Tull's play acoustically. There were two new songs, and one each from Meena and Florian.
The concert was delightful, and the audience was mostly respectful and that was a treat(I'd rather hear the musicians that some drunk shouting out, "IAN!") The music has gotten even more intricate and the styles are a international bouquet. I think it was Aqualung that was amazing. I'd already heard it rearranged for the flute, but here he'd added the violin and the flamenco-ish guitar. It was just wonderful. ( Read more... )
They are playing tonight (November 6 at the Wiltern in LA, and there are still a few more dates going up California and ending in Spokane.
Catch him if you can!

2:40p Yay!
I got the lizard out of the house! Let's see, that only took since...Oct. 15. Three weeks! And the interesting thing is he didn't look that thin, either. Hmmmm....
Want to know how the mighty lizard catcher trapped the wily critter? I had my purse on the floor cause I was gonna do my online banking last night. I just looked down to get my checkbook and saw Mr. Lizard sitting on top of the purse. I picked up the shoulder strap and carefully took everything outside. Mr. Lizard didn't want to get on the tree though. He climbed onto my arm and scurried up to my shoulder. "Mom? Can you come here please?" I thought my voice was pretty even, all things considered. She hustled up and brushed him off, and he slithered under a bush.
So, YAY! Mr. Lizard is healthy and now free. And I don't have to look everywhere all the time.
BTW, fannish content coming soon. There's a Ian Anderson concert tonight and a Stargate/Farscape con this weekend. Guests are Michael Shanks, Claudia Black, Ben Browder, Joe Flanigan, and Paul McGillion, among others. I should have stories to tell by Sunday or Monday.
