Re: Chaintech 24, a Place to Hang Your Chips
Hi, my name is Paul, and I have a problem.
It's 12:41, I have a 5 A.M. call, I'm exhausted, but I refuse to sleep because I haven't watched this weeks Gilmore Girls yet, and I'm terrified that the CW won't pick Gilmore Girls up.
I'm sick [sob] please help me [/sob]

Re: Chaintech 24, a Place to Hang Your Chips
I have dual HDTV cards in my video machine, and another in my main box. That's why I have over 1.6 TB of storage now (each HD program can chew thru 8.5G of storage, I take the RAW 1080i ATSC TS files (8.5 GBish) and transcode them into 1080p ( 1920x1080 = 2.2GB) and 640x360 (350MB) mpeg4 xvids and delete the 1080i source material.
After a week the 1080p xvids are purged (after being written to DVD), and the 640x360 xvids are purged at the start of a new season.
This whole transcoding process is fairly automated with a bunch of scripts, the backup requires that I spend time feeding disks into a burner, but its scripted so I just keep stuffing disks in when a tray pops open.
re: Gilmore Girls; It's not the girls, it's the dialog. I think they may have the most talented dialog writers to ever write for a TV show.
It's like the hallway discussions in the west wing, only about nothing.
verrry bizzare and addictive, kinda like pulp fiction.

no, it plugs into a miniJack and gives you an optical output (I don't think coaxial is an option) Originally Posted by undersea

Re: Chaintech 24, a Place to Hang Your Chips
Damn Skippy....I know that feeling. Sounda like a day in the Control Room where I spend 12 hrs at a time! Last month we finally got rid of several 21 CRT's and replaced with very nice NEC 20" LCD's. Still, staring at a screen that long is murder!
I suggest several strong drinks (of your choice) and several hours of NASCAR...that's just me!Main Rig: EVGA 141-BL-E769-A1 LGA 1366 Intel X58 CLASSIFIED/WATERCOOLED ED. cooled by the Monster Water Cooling Setup

Re: Chaintech 24, a Place to Hang Your Chips
Ya know, I shoulda know better then to boast about my PVR/Media server setup.
Saturday, I found out something happened to the archive process, and the 1080i xvids were not being move to the appropriate locations.
I discovered this because my Friday program was unavailable (not that there was really anything on friday night, I think I only scheduled one show.) due to the backlog of files in the working drive. Fortunatly, the drive used for the .ts files was not filled and I was able to recover the program I recorded, and transcode it manualy (after moving the 1080i xvids where they belonged)
I think I've fixed the race condition that I think was occuring. Guess I'll just have to wait and see if it messes up (took three months for this to appear).
BTW, a one hour 1080i ATSC .ts (MPEG2 + AC3) file can be as large as 8.5 GB, that's about 34 GB for 4 hours of video (prime time), about 171 GB for 5 "streams" and about 1.19 Terrabytes for a week (although I can only record 3 streams at once, so my max is 102 GB and 718 GB)
I hope you see why MPEG4 is needed.Never trust a programmer with a screwdriver, if he starts talking about sonic ones, RUN!!
