Thanks to Rob Anderson for coming over the mountain to give us his presentation on How to make a VCD. Should be a fun meeting. All of you GNHLUGger's who missed the presentation and would like to visit the lonely Monadlugger's, you are welcome to join us.
Jerry The Topic is: Howto Make a VCD The next meeting is Monday 7/8/2002 at 7pm in Morse Hall room 301. Video CDs are normal CD-R(CD-RW) in a format that can be played on many DVD players. There are some variants that allow higher resolution and more capabilities. What I was looking for was a way to burn my photos such that I could watch them on my large format TV, as well as having a web front end. To date I've not been 100% successful. But I can burn slideshows just short of a 100 pictures and have had some luck with the AVI videos produced by my camera. At my current VCD proficiency level training VCDs and special slideshow VCDs are doable. I'm still working out the best that I can do toward my goal of archiving my photos. At this point I do not think I can achive the original intent, but I should be able to get fairly close. Part of the demo will be using "nautilus" to manipulate photograpic images in a nicer manner than I've been used to.
