What Are You Doing Right Now
-
@johnhooks That's ok. I have lots of life altering movies... such as the Princess Bride, and Spaceballs (I just got the DVD for this one, lol)... among others.

@johnhooks This is true. In the past, when I have done that (recorded the VHS video using various tools), the Closed Captions do not come over with the video. (Or perhaps back then, the video players simply did not have the options for CC... Couldn't hurt to try again.
That's because they are not part of the video but are displayed by the television.

I really need to move the Princess Bride to the top of our watch list. My wife has never seen it.

I took the leap and just starting rebuying everything on Amazon VOD so that I would not have to deal with it anymore.

@scottalanmiller If it is displayed (in WinTV, for instance) and WinTV is recording it, it should have been recorded into the video (assuming the container / codec you used supports that)... I think years ago, it was MPEG-2 or DivX were the 2 leading ones and it wasn't supported (By years ago, I mean like early-to-mid 90s)... (or I didn't know what I was doing... that is likely the case, lol).
-
@coliver Yes... This is a must! Do it this weekend!
-
@scottalanmiller I'm cheap... what can I say? Besides -- I have Crashplan for backups, lol.
-
It's the no need to store and back it up that I like. I own stuff in super HD and never have to worry about it and can use it wherever I am.
-
@scottalanmiller Me too! (<3 Plex!)

-
Making Costa Rican mac and cheese for the kids, again.
-
@scottalanmiller Ha ha ha. I don't either... Copy the files in and done... Arguably, all you have to do is press the Buy Now and done, lol.
We actually have growing Digital Video Libraries (Vudu, Amazon, and Google Play, lol)... Vudu, I think will let you download the movies to your device so you can watch them offline, IIRC. Google play will do this also, but it still wants connectivity to double check your license, I think... haven't used either of them on the road in a while..
-
I love Vudu, it's where I buy the majority of my movies these days.
-
I prefer actually owning the DVD... Those that come with a VUDU, etc digital copy are ones I look for... To me, it doesn't make sense to buy the movie from Vudu at the same, full retail price as the DVD most of the time.

For anyone who reads this.... if you put something like a parens or a quotation mark into a topic title or fill it with question marks I have to go back and edit those every time.
-
@scottalanmiller Not wanting to know who... But why do you have to edit them?

Because it breaks the Twitter feed and other things that point to the site.

Excited about Cybrary... They finally added some closed captioning for the hearing impaired... It's not all of their courses, but they have a few that are done... If you haven't heard of them or never checked them out... It's free training for IT folks... http://cybrary.it

Anybody heard about the Humble Monthly yet?
