Sorry I can't help there.

1. I have no good suggestions about automatic IVTC methods or IVTC of any kind.

3. I don't have any idea of where to find such a thing in the first place. I can only access the internet at work so any sort of P2P or Torrent thing is not going to happen in any way, shape, or form. Again you are on your own.

5. As far as doing subtitles for a DVD...You couldn't pay me enough to do that. It takes up way too much damn time. It's much easier to pay a person 300 bux and have them give you a text file with all that info instead of sitting around doing it yourself.

FREE YOU SAY! NO WAY MAN!

Good luck anyway.

The assigned and marvel records were intended to appear on our DVDs as a page with text, an extra of sorts. After all, the aired order is how people saw them. Then again you do make a good point and I'll start a poll about what order would you guys prefer to have them in.


When authoring why not put the option to watch the episodes in assigned, marvel record, or aired? It will not be hard to do and will not take up any more disc space than is already being used. It is really a very simple process and would make your final discs look much more professional. Stories in DVD Studio Pro will do the trick for this very easily.

Everything will plug right into the mac just fine.

Video files add up in a hurry. That all depends on the length of the file you will be using. I use the following to figure it out.

[Video Bitrate (# bits/sec) + Audio Bitrate (# bits/sec)] X # Seconds = Total Files Size (# bits)

Just put in your info and do the math and you will have a good idea of how much space you need. A 500 GB HD is a good idea to start. You can get buy fine with 250 but the extra space is very nice. I'm constantly fighting with space on my HD. I can't remember the last time it wasn't full.

He needs more help than you can offer I'm afraid to say. Having had friends with serisous drugs problems you should do whatever you can to get him into a rehab clinic. Talk to as many people as you can that care about him. Without that network of support and a desire to quit I'm sorry to say he won't make it. The best advice I can offer you is to call an area rehab clinic and talk to someone there about his problem.

I am in no way a professional and I would suggest you seek the advice of one.

Star Wars Poster Book - SCANNED!

So how many did you download, man?

None.

Uh, if posting scans of Star Wars posters is copyright infringement, we'd have to shut down every cover site and half the internet.


To an extent I agree. Obviously the fact that I have been a contributing member here for so long says something about what I think about what is going on on this website. However I do think that posting scans from a book that can be purchased legally is a bit over the line. After all we are not talking about scanning posters here. What we are talking about is scanning a book. The fact of the matter is that we can spend days going back and forth about this issue and it's validity here on this forum. Seeing as we are both members of a forum that actively partakes in the preservation of out of print movies I have to assume that along some line we have a common ground about what is right and what is wrong legally here. With that in mind I really have nothing left to say about this issue that won’t lead us, and this thread, in circles for the next few days/weeks.

I'm not trying to start a lengthy conversation about the legalities of this site. That is a matter that rests in the hands of the moderators and Jay alone. Outside of those people it is simply a matter of personal opinion that, in all fairness, doesn't amount to a whole hill of beans. I just wanted to point out that I think this particular thread may be going a bit far with its depiction of copyrighted material. That is it, period. No mal intent was intended.

Please don't take that as a knock against ocpmovie in any shape or form.

There is a bunch of Halloween edits around that Rikter has done. I think he took TV footage and added it into the movies. I'm not sure I really haven't seen them. In fact the only fan edits I have seen are the Magnolia Fan edits. That was years ago however.

I do know that at one time someone was working on a version of Halloween that put parts one and two into one long movie.

I don't know what ever happened with that.

That mac will run for about 20 years. If you need to upgrade anything on that it will be the graphics card or the memory.

The graphics card, as you know, needs to be updated about every two weeks.

And the memory can go up to 16 GB max.

So with the option of 16GB of ram and four 2.5GB processors you should be set for at least 10 years before you need a new computer.

For 4000 grand you could get a Quad G5 ($3,300), a copy of Final Cut Express HD ($300), and a Pro Tools M-Box ($400).

You would be set for a long time with that sucker. And if you needed to make it better for around 700 bux you can pick up around 8 GB of ram for it.

In the future you would pick up a copy of After Effects and a copy of DVD Studio Pro and you would be a one man movie making machine. Plus the Graphics card on that mac would be decent for quite some time. Making it plenty good for gaming in the future.

iTunes Question

My question...

Is there a way to make iTunes not add music that is played back in it?

As of right now every song I play through iTunes gets added to my library. That's fine but sometimes I just want to hear a .wav file or an .mp3 without it getting added to my library.

Thanks in advance for any help I can get.

Something about 6 months ago, a guy (ADigitalMan) came up with the pif idea (pay it forward).


The idea of paying it forward has been around this board a lot longer than just 6 months ago. In fact way back in the day the only way to get a copy of the OT on this board was to shell out money to the few people on this board who had copies. That’s right…actual money!

The first person to offer to give free copies as long as you pay it forward was Rikter. I think that was in early '04 sometime. He bought copies of the OT from those who had it and for the price of a blank DVD he would give you a copy of it. Lets give credit where credit is due.

Thus concludes the originaltrilogy.com history lesson for the day.

Much like the rest of this forum as of late…I can see this thread spiraling down to the level of name calling rather quickly.

Don’t get me wrong I am all for debates as to whether or not a scene was in a movie or wasn’t. I myself have been privy to more than my fair share on this board in the past. I, however, don't see any good information on either side of this argument.

If at all possible can we as a forum move past the childish reply of “Prove it?”
