Thank you all for your wise and prompt responses! Here is what happened: A member of our stake who happens to work for JVC had a friend in another state who had DVR'd the program and had received a copy. Some diagnostics (GSpot) to troubleshoot codec issues, and I finally had the files. I know many of you will laugh at me for being just a Windows guy (although I do have a RHEL box at home): I used Windows Movie Maker was able to bring in the entire program, found the segment I wanted, pulled it out and I am good to go.
Thanks again! -John- PS. Bro. McCown makes some really good comments. I will try to address them below: >The church has on numerous occasions re-stated their long-standing policy >prohibiting members from showing external material in a church setting -- whether or not it is copyrighted. I was not aware of this except in the context of teaching classes. I am pinging someone at HQ to see if I can get the official policy. Thanks for the heads-up. >You might want to ask permission of the stake leaders, first. Done. Thanks for double checking! >As an aside, the PBS documentary was not that flattering... True, but the testimony of Elder Marlin K. Jensen regarding his mission experience taken by itself is very very powerful. After editing out just that part and listening to it without watching the rest of the program, I am repeatedly moved by it. If you have the program recorded, you might want to watch just that part. It is about 2/3 way through the second part. I think you will see why our SP is interested in showing it to potential missionaries. _______________________________________________ Ldsoss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ldsoss.org/mailman/listinfo/ldsoss
