I didn't realize they were still on.
Better yet.. I can rip them digitally off my satellite receiver's harddrive (PVR) and go directly to another digital format, so I won't loose resolution/quality if I went tv=>VHS=>PC. :)

Time to check the program guide and see when this comes on. Thanks for the heads-up! :sohappy:

It will take awhile to do the conversion (encoding). My machine is slow and also being a putz at the moment. I did tell my receiver to record the two episodes that were on this morning. My PC decided it has had enough after 2 years of crunching down video that now it is misbehaving. I did a full reformat/reinstall the last couple nights.. first Win2K (again) and trying XP for the first time. Hopefully I can work something out with it. I'll ask Popkid if he would mind me uploading the episodes to his server once I get something to offer. :)

I hate to post back to back, but wanted to let you know my first encode of a Rescue Rangers episode was a success. I uploaded episode 1x36 to my uploads folder on Popkid:

in mirc:

!dizuploads
cd Disneyjedi
get chip'n'dale'srescuerangers_1x36_songofthenight'n'dale.avi


Make sure your DCC settings in mirc are correct according to http://www.popkid.com/disneycentral

I am uploading a second episode right now called chip'n'dale'srescuerangers_1x48_whenmiceweremen.avi
Don't try downloading it for at least 6 hours so it can finish uploading

You're welcome!

I got that second episode all uploaded. I recorded the episodes from today also, but have so many other things to encode I don't know if I will get to them. I don't use my VCR to record shows anymore.. I just rip them, recompress (encode) and burn to free-after-rebate CDR discs. Just can't get as good quality if I put everything I want to watch on tape (plus they take up more shelf space than cds). It dies take considerable more time though then simply popping in a tape in the VCR.

I think encoding divx3.11, 2-pass, 320x240 resolution, 12KBps MP3 audio with a total target filesize of 175MB hits the spot just right with cartoons for quality. You should be able to fit 4 on a CD also. Please let me know what you think of them, so I know to continue or not. Thanks!

oh.. and thanks Popkid for allowing me to store them on his server for the masses to download!
