I have a LAN connection on 24-7. If you can get them to me I will be glad to host them. What do I need to do?

Ok, here's what keeps happening. The AVI version plays fin on the PC and the audio is encoded at 22kHz, 16 bps. Once I encode it to MPEG! format, it won't even play the sound past 6 seconds on the PC, and it encodes the audio at 44kHz, 16 bps. It won't let me change that either so I suspect that it is the problem. I don't have the experience to correc it myself, so any ideas? Anyone? Class?

I had a terrible time trying to burn these episodes to watch them on anything other than my PC.

The DVD player I'm using chokes on VCD/SVCD's, so I had to burn them on DVD, but I don't think my problem was DVD-specific.

If I let my burning software do the encoding, I would end up with a few minutes of video/audio and the the video would "freeze" and the audio would continue (with the video showing a still frame).

If I used TMPGEnc to do the encoding (which is what I prefer to do normally), the video would be fine, but the audio would "skip", so that it ran ahead of the video and was garbled.

I tried many many different settings, with no luck. Finally I contacted TMPGEnc tech support and they suggested that I de-multiplex the video and audio and let TMPGEnc do the encoding from the individual files.

I used the MPG Tools that come with TMPGEnc and did a "simple de-multiplex" on both the original source files (this resulted in .m2v files and .mp2 files). I ran TMPGEnc and specified the individual video and audio files and did the encoding from them (to convert to the right format to burn them).

I burned the DVD from the file it created and they worked fine. No audio sync problems or "freezing".

I don't know if this will help anyone else's problems, but I wanted to post it here, just in case.

Cheers,

here's the first link:

Trash:
ed2k://|file|Firefly.-.Trash.(VCD.denoised).mpg|474365584|7756BA91F2CA091875105CCD36122109|/

I denoised the audio and corrected the aspect ratio but I couldn't do nothing about the interlaced-resized problem. that means the big ugly lines on the sides of moving objects are still there.

so please in the beginning only one at a time, otherwise no one will get anything the line is extremely slow here.

if you need the client, you can get it here:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/emule/eMule0.29b-Installer.exe?down
load

and a server.met file here (if it has problems connecting):
http://ed2kmet.x24hr.com/pl/slist.pl?download

so let's see if this works.

if anyone needs instructions on how to get eMule running, please just ask, it isn't all that difficult. but it might take some time to find me on the net, so be patient. let it run overnight...

and the next one...

Heart Of Gold:
ed2k://|file|Firefly.-.Heart.Of.Gold.(VCD.denoised).mpg|471416428|66BF148D358ADE5155782D6E9342E991|/

the audio is as good, as I can get it. first 15 or so minutes it is a bit crackly but it clears up after that.

and there's a bit of purple all around but that was there in the 'SVCD's as well.

PS: The Message is ready as well but I will 'proofwatch' it before I post the link, one never knows...

Hey people, I've been a lurker for awhile, mostly because their hasn't been anything interesting or worthwhile to respond to, but I think I can help you guys save alot of grief. You guys are all overlooking one blaringly obvious fact: The episodes of Heart Of Gold, Trash, & The Message will be airing in the UK starting in less than a month. I'm confident that the professional rippers who are fans of Firefly will be ready to meet our needs, digital needs that is. I'm gonna be lurking the newsgroups starting the day after they air, and will contact the forums once I find that someone has done a high quality digital rip. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions related to downloading or encoding or burning these episodes.

Check me out on WinMX, I have all the episodes in SVCD format.

we know. I said about the same thing (read above)...

but maybe some people can't wait and I don't have anything better to do.

by the way someone got about 5 MB of Trash but it was an error of me that he/she didn't get any more. please try again. the line should be as free as it can be now.

on eMule as soon as someone has a 9 MB chunk he/she shares this chunk as well, so there are two people sharing instead of one. so don't give up too soon, it will get better...

PS: the server I'm connected to at the moment is Razorback:
ed2k://|server|195.245.244.243|4661|/
but that can change. I won't be here all day (day just starts here, it's 7:30 AM now) to watch over it, I have to work like most folk.

and here's the last one

The Message:
ed2k://|file|Firefly.-.The.Message.(VCD.denoised).mpg|471416428|BD84AADEE481F5B63AB318360A5206E4|/

my emule seems to be not so busy at the moment. no one downloaded anything since this morning (it's 11:10 PM now). did nobody try or didn't it work?

I will leave it running.
