Default Some 51-L footage now online

Some of the Mission 51-L footage is now online he

http://66.113.238.188/videos/51LFootage.html

Some commentary is provided. Feel free to disagree! ;-)

If you are interested in this footage I suggest you get it right away. You
will need a fast connection such as Road Runner to download the clips in a
suitably small amount of time. In any case, these clips may disappear
without much warning, and the server may be "going away" in the near future,
as well. After a couple of days or so I will probably remove the current
clips and add new ones (I have to stay under a quota).

I apologize for the flashing in a few of the clips. I was rushed for time
and did not have much time to tweak the video capture settings.

Also (and I hate to mention this at this point) I have placed a preliminary
copy of a new paper (based on my 51L web page) on this server as well:

http://66.113.238.188/videos/conspiracy.pdf

I have placed that paper online because it may prove helpful to those asking
why an SRB crossing makes any difference.

What about your promise to give the credits for this
FOIA video to my son Daniel Maxson, Burnt?

We disagree, emphatically!

right away.


Why not, oh libelous and defamatory BBR; after all, it
did not cost you anything.

You paid actual cost of duplication and distribution. That's how the
government operates with respect to FOIA materials.

Stop whining.

You didn't pay for it. I know how it works. You have no idea how hard and
how much I went through to get those videotapes. You don't even know how
many there are. Go away if you are going to act like a troll and just
insult people.

Is there a specific reason you used Microsoft Windows-only video
codecs, and not a more open format (like MPEG) that everyone can view?

....Some people don't have the patience to sit through MPEG-2 encoding.
It's one of the reasons I settle for DiVX, because I can encode an
episode of one of the Trek shows on my ultrafast ripper box in about
49 minutes in DiVX whereas MPEG-2 would take about 2.5 hours. It's
also possible that Jon's not that versed in encoding, and to be
totally honest when you discard all the primary reasons for not
encoding in WMV format (*). you begin to realize that it's not *that*
bad of a format quality-wise. In fact, it's essentially what M$ codec
development team went with when they discarded the MPEG-4 prototype
that went on to become what we know as DiVX.

Of course, we should be grateful that he didn't choose to encode using
Quickslime...

(*) Not in any particular order:

1) Windows-specific and doesn't run on boxes loaded with **** OS' like
Macs and Linux. Not that *I* give a **** about those platforms, but
some people do that I *do* care about even though their notions of
what a good OS is all about are sorely misguided...

2) Is part of M$ scheme to incorporate bull**** copy protection into
every PC so that scum like the MafRIAA can rape us for more money for
less quality with impunity.

3) Isn't editable in most video editing programs such as VirtualDub
because M$ wants exorbitant licensing fees for that sort of capability
to be added to every program, and yet can't produce a video editing
program with 1/2 the capabilites of Premier and 1/10th the stability
during operation, and Premier isn't that ****ing stable since they
cludged together their legacy video import wrapper to work under XP.

4) Finally, encodings can be ****ed in that you can't fast-forward or
jump to a particular point in the clip. This doesn't happen all the
time, but when it does you can't fix it, nor can you direct-stream
reencode the clip to add the capabilty. M$ acknowledges this, but has
AbZero intentions of fixing this "low-priority" bug. Jerks.

....Not that they deserved any credit to begin with. Give credit to the
Federal Government for having the film in the first place, and let the
Maxson trash go **** themselves.

I've done the same thing for other government investigations. You're
whining.

You don't even know how
many there are.


Irrelevent.

The irony of that statement is delicious.
