River's vid

[ski_resort_observer]

Just got done watching River's video from last season. Really well done and fun to watch! Your getting good. Everyone should check it out. With hopefully a full season ahead this season's version should be even better.

thanks SRO! i am looking forward to an injury free and powder filled season to obtain lots of great footage. i will post updates on AZ as i finish my vids this coming season.

in other news, since you mentioned my web site, stay tuned as i am almost ready to throw the switch on the new version. i have one and a quarter more seasons of web pages to convert. it has been fun revisiting all my trip reports but a pain converting and de-tagging everything.

Nice vid. Certainly looks like you made the most of a lousy season :beer:

 

[riverc0il]

the only thing that made my season even the slightest bit lousy was breaking my elbow. other than that, it wasn't a dream season, but i certainly had a ball and will remember it fondly.

Hope you don't mind Steve. I converted your video to a podcast for my ipod. It kills my crappy ski movies that I have on there.

 

[riverc0il]

i don't mind at all, feel free to distribute, convert, and share as long as the vid itself is not altered or combined with other vids i could care less. i have all my vids on my mp3 w/video player (creative zen) so i can have them available on the go.

What program do you use to convert it to a podcast?

What program do you use to convert it to a podcast?

I use iMovie on my mac, but I have heard that people with Windows have good results with mPlayer. What operating system are you running?

 

[Birdman829]

Windows. So I guess I'll check out mPlayer

 

[riverc0il]

it is nice having a creative zen mp3 player, no conversion required to transfer videos to the player

You don't compress it to save space, Steve?

 

[riverc0il]

it is already in wmv, that is about as small as it is going to get. with 8gb, who cares about space! the videos are only the size of a few large song files.

 

[BeanoNYC]

Interesting, I just compared file sizes and it actually went up when I converted it to m4v.

Who's that guy in the blue?

My ski buddy was over yesterday. He was playing with my ipod, watching the better fight scenes from Kill Bill....

Beano: Oh, I have a friends ski video on that thing.
Ski Buddy: What friend?
Beano: Fellow internet nerd, is acquaintance better for you?

Ski Buddy starts watching...all is quiet...about 3 minutes into it.

Ski Buddy: Who the hell is that guy in the blue? He's tearing shit up out there!


He loved the video, Steve.
