I have a incredibly expensive capture card, so I can cap the games and put them on an FTP. Then, if you want to see the game PM me for username and password.
IT WOULD HELP IF SOMEONE CAN HOOK ME UP WITH A HARD DRIVE. Maybe if you appreciate the games being shared you can donate one or something. :shy:
-
How big of a Hard drive do you need, fatty?
-
Each game is 45GB
-
Holy crap. I won't be able to watch any. :mad:
-
45 gigabytes? :confused:
Compression please.
-
Holy @#%$. I won't be able to watch any. :mad:
Darsh, they get re-encoded to around 700MB
-
All I have is a 100gb hard drive. Would that help?
-
Thx, lets see if anyone else has one.
-
Capture, encode, compress, upload to host FTP.
Sup?
-
Heh, I was going to offer my old X-box hard drive, but those are only what, 40 gigs?
-
if u get this done by the UT game, please record it and seed it asap! i really want to watch it but i can't :(

It's irrelevant for you.

If we win, sure. :thumbsup:

It's not irrelevant for me.
I was simply pointing out that it was cheaper to pay for a host than to purchase a Terabyte HDD you apparently "need".
-
"trips". do this all season long and you will be a god to me.
-

LOL.
-
Do you want external or internal? If internal, IDE or SATA? How big of drive do you need/want?
-
Never, ever get SATA. Seriously, I must spend half my day recovering and reformatting those hard drives. We have more IDE HDs in our office than SATA, but the SATA ones seem to be the only ones that EVER crash. I don't understand it.
They may be faster sure, but I swear they crash so much easier it's not even worth it.

What capture card do you have fatty?

You must have gotten a bad batch of drives - SATA is the industry standard for desktop PC's now. Everyone uses them.
-
Yeah I know. Keeps my ass busy as hell.
Maybe it's just because they're Dell SATAs?
It's just so weird - None of the IDE drives ever crash, but the SATAs do allllll the time, despite being the newer drives.

Dell SATAs?
Did you know that Dell is the largest PC manufacturer that use REFURBISHED parts and packages them as new?
-
I love sata, but they are terrible for capture.
Java, advc-200 or something like that.

How do you figure?
SATA's data rate is 150 MB / second while an ultra PATA (IDE) drive can only go up to 100 MB, and that's really not even true, as Ultra PATA really only goes up to 80 MB/SEC. If you're running a SATA II drive, it can capture up to 300 MB / sec and that rate when the next SATA spec comes up says you should be able to do 5 times that.
Broadcast quality data capture should always be around 40 MB/ Sec with 2:1 compression. I have a SATA drive using MPEG3 compression, no problem, using a Pinnacle Firewire Vid Capture card.

For some reason when I cap to ATA I don't lose any frames, but when I cap to my Sata (2-250 in raid)* I lose an incredible amount of frames.
I use sata for storage.

What's sad is this doesn't surprise me AT ALL.

You need to check your raid controller. There are issues with SATA in a raid configuration that is easily correctable.

nerd alert!!!!

Dell doesn't make hard drives.

That's what i'm thinking - or it has something to do with the cap. software itself.

I've got a WD Raptor, I like the noise it makes.
*Most people use IDE for storage, SATA for program files.

WILL YOU BE ABLE TO SHARE THE RUTGERS GAME, FATTY?!?

I think it does porn sounds (well, if you're a nerd, anything that hums is considered porn.)

Yes, and the issue is related to the disk buffers in the OS when doing write caching.
I have SATA raid controllers on several machines. Manufacturers of the RAID controllers (see Adaptec) are aware of the issue.

The noise I was referring to is the snapping that the arm makes as it pops around the hdd.

Is that a happy sound to you?
Does it help you focus?
-
It is a happy sound, it reminds me that I can afford overpriced 15k rpm HDD's.
In terms of focus, it generally does not help me focus or "channel" my emotions into my abusive elbows anymore than I already do.

WD has a pretty good warranty. Both my raptors died but they replaced them.

Did you have the 74gb or the 150?

Those were the first one's I think.
I have the 74gb w/o any problems (1 yr old).
