Converting Andy's White Room to NTSC

Anyone out there well versed in DVD ripping, etc? I've been trying to convert The White Room to NTSC but am having problems. The framerate is an unusual 20fps instead of the usual 25fps PAL. The result when I try to convert is that the film clocks in at 35m while the soundtrack continues for another 15m. I've been messing about with TMPGenc but, ah, it just ain't workin! Anyone have suggestions out there? While I can play PAL DVDs my multisystem DVD player is cheapo and not user friendly remote-wise and basically a pain in the ass to use. :) Let me also chime in, however, and say how fantastic these DVDs are! Never thought I'd get to see KLF vids in such great quality! -paul

Rare recordings.

Hi, I just joined the list & would like some info if anyone can help. I discovered that a 'KLF newsgroup' have produced some CDs of rare KLF recordings (Lost Sounds Of MU etc). I couldn't find a KLF newsgroup, probably because I have no idea what it's called, but I found this mailing list. Can anyone tell me if it's still possible to get hold of copies of these CDs?

Strange request
by Thomas Touzimsky 30 Nov '03

Hello list members, I finally managed to introduce two new features at www.klf.de - one of them is a glossary database that stores keywords and their respective explanations. A short example can be found directly in the latest news entry where you can click on "Custerd" which will take you to a page with a short summary and more links. The glossary entries are not hard-linked, meaning that with every new entry all the links get recreated. The big advantage is that all the information already entered (news, interviews, articles, bios...) won't get touched except that the new glossary entries automatically create new links. Now I wanted to ask everyone for your help. If you feel you got a nice short summary (not too short of course :-) ) and would like to contribute that to the glossary, feel free to email us and we will add it to the database, thereby building a huge evergrowing encyclopedia of The KLF, allowing you to browse through all the entries, read related news, articles covering the subject, dig up discography entries and so on. I would be happy about any contribution. Thanks in advance. :-) --- Thomas Touzimsky

OT - Sisters OF Mercy

I was able to get the entire video of their tour "Wake" Live from Royal Albert Hall in June 18, 1985. I had to edit the audio and make a pseudo stereo track b/c the video track was only in on the left. I used Vegas Video and Sound Forger to do this. I rendered it in a Mepg 1 format VCD Complaint format. The sound turned out quiet well compared to some of their other live recordings. IT took 2.27 hours to render this video. I will place it on the ftp for all who r interested. Please email me back. It is 556 meggs.... I am going to make a VCD out of it and make cover art and I also have track listing for it. Or a MINI DVD. Don't know which yet.

Festival
by Rudolph Schnaubelt 30 Nov '03

The west coast of Scotland along with its islands is undoubtedly some of the finest scenery within which one would ever wish to burn money However if its a festival you are after then there really is only one location suitable - INGOLSTADT (somewhere near to a lake would be perfect) Of course 2003 is too short notice - unless there is already one planned this summer which could be hijacked :) so perhaps 2005 is an alternative AUM anyone fancy a free cup of tomato juice ? In my mind the drums of fu manchu beat louder & louder rudi _________________________________________________________________ Find a cheaper internet access deal - choose one to suit you. http://www.msn.co.uk/internetaccess

I would really like to have the White Room and the Work in NTSC format with Andy's great sleeves (and would be willing to pay good money), so if a list member manages to convert it, please post sales info to the list!!! Dan Hutchins

Andy - I've pounded it out and was able to figure out how to extract the video from the disc. Cool. Now I'll go about reencoding. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I would've thought it possible to do but I couldn't find anything which indicated it was. -paul

Download it from their site and use the programme to extract the video from the DVD (you'll have 30 days). It is 25 fps PAL I just checked! hmm. Thanks. I used DVD2AVI to extract (which claimed 20fps) then used TMGenc to create the new mpg. How do you extract the video with TMG? Didn't know you could do that. Will work on it. -paul
