Thanks. I'll be bringing a 1TB USB drive, which I expect to be able to handle everything, but I'm not certain what default settings these new recorders have. But, yeah, I tend to figure 1-2M/minute for Audio, and a lot more for video. > > I would like to use this opportunity as an experiment to see if the > process could be crowd sourced and automated for future events.

We have not, to date, effectively crowdsourced video, although we have done the on-site audio editing a couple times now. I would love to see if we can get the keynotes video'ed, at the very least. I'll be on site Sunday evening at some time. I won't have much time before the Monday morning keynotes, as I have an early meeting. but if we can get your camera set up for the 9am keynote that would be wonderful. Getting the recordings is, of course, the most important thing. Post-processing can happen any time, even if we can't get it done on-site. --Rich > > On 05/05/2016 08:29 AM, Rich Bowen wrote: >> As some of you know, we do not have a sponsor to handle audio/video >> recording at ApacheCon this year.
