Hi Rick!
You just made me spend 30 min of my lunch on this I still cant find a good answer.
I rechecked the links and for a few seconds I saw the house session links you posted. Then they teurned into the concert1 link.
I cleared all cache and checked the links again with both FireFox and Explorer and they are all the same again (concert1).
The source code says "href=“Movies/Concert1.wmv” on all three links so I dont know how it could be displayed in any other way.
But I saw it the way you did even if it was just for a few secs.
Great job Brian! Thanks for taking all the time to record, edit, compress, and place on website. You’ve set a new standard for local/regional tionols with visiting pipers. I hope many of them will allow their playing to be recorded and shared.
So Kevin, did you split a good reed or something yesterday? We’re not feakin Disney with millions to spend on putting videos together ya picky bastard! When you move to SLC and join the group, you’ll officially be in charge of all video production and web hosting how’s that?
Thanks at least for the tune names. Dramore or Dromore are both common spellings, just went with what came up more commonly from Google in that case.
As for the rest of you poor pipers…there was indeed some problems with the coding on the last few tracks. I think I was able to clean it all up this AM though. Sorry for that. Guess that’s what happens when you spend 16+ hours in front of your computer trying to put video up on your website!
I’ll do my bets to get the tune names updated over the weekend. But for now, I gotta go rip my shirt off, oil up my bod and paint a blue trisk on my pec. Now where’d I leave my leather pants…
The vids are in .wmv format Joe as are the rest of the vid and sound clips on the site. Have you tried a right click and save as? I can try to email them to you as well, though I’m not sure how well that might go - the files average about 5 megs each. Much smaller than that, and the sound and vid quality were getting pretty horrid.
Try “save link target” or whatever it’s called in IE (I’m on Mozilla/Linux). There probably is a right-click menu of some kind you can use to save the file to disk. From there you can probably open them from inside Windows Media Player (File->Open etc.).
Sounds like either the “mime-type” is being incorrectly reported by the server, or your filetypes/viewers configuration is messed up on your machine or browser settings.
good luck
Bill
p.s. - BTW Brian, great job saving these in a format that is at least viewable using mplayer on Linux. It’s all too easy to pick a highly-compressed format/codec that’s useless outside of WinDoze. As you probably know, .WMV can consist of all sorts of different things under the hood.
Thanks a lot Brian for all your efforts. I watched all the clips this morning. It was really great to see this performance and there were definitely some very piercing moments in that performance.
Thanks for the image. Didn’t you used to have a gymnosophistic motorcycle rider avatar?
Wise Maid/Limestone Rock. House-Concert-3.wmv is Jenny Picking Cockles/My Love is in America. Titles will help if you want to jam with Dave in the future, no? He played the beejeesus out of the Rock on my answering machine once!
Thanks for the help again with tunes all. I know a bunch of you will be loathe to hear it, but my leather pants got a hole in the tush. Seems my 28" waist and buns of steel ain’t what they used to be back in high school.
Guess I should hang up the dancing shoes for a while anyway, and practice with the old stick a bit more anyway…
How is it that we are talking about Brian’s leathered tush? The important thing is that the back of my head is in some of the video.
Thanks for posting Brian. It was a great weekend.
