Late-Breaking News: Smile, You're On Camera!

It's confirmed - through volunteer support, the conference talks will be 
recorded and posted on the Net for free! We're preparing diligently to 
ensure professional quality recordings. One more reason to pledge even 
if for those of you who can't be there!
=========

We have two volunteers who offered; I'm not naming them because I don't 
know whether they want to take the responsibility burden at this point. 
If you do, just reply to this!

Thanks Andrei! I promise that the talks will be recorded and published. :)

And I'll bring a picture camera to take photos.

Could also bring a recording device, incase the recorded audio on the
video is poor :o)

I can recommend a backup recording. I had a talk of mine once that got video, 
but no audio, because the mike was accidentally left off. It was a smallish 
venue, so nobody noticed it was off.

Heck, an ipod can do it.

I've got a Zoom H1, so it's a lovely little pocket device that can do
about 50 hours recording (or 500 if I switch it to mp3 format).

That'd work fine. It doesn't need to be 320 bit quality!

You mean 320kbps? :~)

Yup, AIUI mp3 was designed for voice anyway, that's why music needs to
be cranked up to ridiculous bitrates to not sound shitty when
you're using mp3 instead of a proper general-purpose audio codec like
vorbis or aac.

  Both Vorbis and MP3 can be set as VBR (Variable Bit Rate), 
however I would think that's post processing; If possible I would 
think you get as high of quality as you can reasonably get, then 
downgrade it afterwards. If you got 50Gb of space for audio, why 
not record at 320kbits?

  Thank heavens for MPEG-4 (and AVC/h.264), otherwise video would 
still be difficult to transmit over the internet at decent speeds.

  If I attend and that's very likely (unless something huge 
happens... like my death...) then I would bring an external drive 
or two, meaning drive space during the recording and time there 
wouldn't be an issue; Although having a backup in case one of the 
drives fails seems important at that point (losing the only copy 
would be quite annoying to everyone).

I will not be able to attend the conference but I did go for the 
lousy tshirt pledge.

I live in Europe and wanted to set the shipping address to one of 
my friends in the US.
How do you do that?

Gotta read the order confirmation email a little closer next 
time. It's all in there.
