thanks guys.
the fall to the floor actually didn't do anything to it... thank god.
but my rx-7 fell on the floor too, only his spoiler popped off, popped right back in.
oh yea, and the thing is fast as all hell, I couldn't believe how far I was clearing.

taken out of context....this worries me..

I've been working on some different camera angles, but i'd like to borrow your car... man your getting it out there... mine aren't that good. I should also look at raising the ramp angle itself.

and you did have a good idea - that's why I followed suit

I don't know what it is about that car, but it runs better with those clone 150's than with the 160's. My 160's don't last long before they're buggin all slow, if I leave it sit and come back, it has pent up energy and boosts for a few seconds then goes back to dead... I'm sure it's the combo of my little charging time and the fact that I still have the dual cell to where it can be taken out at anytime, it's not soldered except on the batteries themselves, but after that spill in the video, I think I'm gonna change that and make it a perminant fixture.

payaso, can't wait to see it, I know you'll come in ballin like a gangsta!

thats awesome. you gota make your sound quality a little better. that tinty compressed sound kills me. nice ramp man. i learned a few new "bowl tricks"(take that any way you want to) last night. didnt film any yet tho. too busy lately.

I like it!

Post by **CaboWabo** » Sun Apr 06, 2003 7:01 pm

thanks again fella's

hog, you got's any suggestions?
I'm trying to keep the file sizes down as small as possible, so it does compromise the sound quality, but if I ramp it up, the file sizes start getting bigger too.
Help a brotha out

vbr + mono helps save space. mono takes up half of whatever quality stereo you do so make it one channel but higher quality. im not sure if wmv encoder offers vbr tho.

Post by **CaboWabo** » Sun Apr 06, 2003 10:12 pm

I think 9 does but to get true VBR I think I need it streamed through WMS?

I'll have to do some testing and post the results, but the software I use is:

RAD Video Tools featuring Bink and Smacker!
RAD Game Tools
web: www.radgametools.com

I use this to convert .MOV to .AVI

Supported CoDec:

Cinepak Codec by Radius
Intel 4:2:0 Video V2.50
Intel Indeo(R) Video R3.2
Intel Indeo Video 4.5
Intel IYUV Codec
Microsoft RLE
Microsoft Video 1 Compressor
Microsoft H.263 Video Codec
Microsoft H.261 Video Codec
Indeo video 5.10
Microsoft MPEG-4 Video Codec V1
Microsoft MPEG-4 Video Codec V2
Full Frames (Uncompressed)

I'll pick one file and try and convert it using each of the supported Codecs.
To see which has the best picture quality vs. file size.
