  1. It very easy to record time lapse with the PC109, im at work at the moment and cant remember the exact menu settings. However it is possible to set the camera to take as little as 1 second of video every 30 seconds. I have some footage I shot at this speed and I will post later when im back at home.. I left the camera on a tripod pointing out of a hotel window over night, and captured the sunrise. When played back at normal speed then the sunrise takes about 25 seconds. This will will create a much smoother image then just increasing the playback speed of you footage. ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+
  2. Can anyone explain to me how astrology works?? Or tell me what force the planets exert on us that depict what star sign we are?? Ill make it easy by making the answer multiple choice.. 1. Gravity 2. Electromagnetism 3. Strong force 4. Weak force 5 None of the above, it’s a force unknown to science These are the four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, and two forces called the strong and weak force. Those last two only work (more or less) on the nuclei of atoms and subatomic particles. It's hard to see how they could affect us on a macroscopic scale (the strong force weakens so rapidly with distance that it's essentially gone by the time you're a few billionths of a meter from the source!). So to make it even easier we're stuck with either gravity, electromagnetism or a great unknown force?? So anyone want to hazard a guess?? ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+

  5. I don't think it's got anything to do with the political party of the current president of the USA. It's got more to do with the fact that he has politicised science in a way that's very reminiscent of Europe in the Middle Ages. Only scientists who profess the correct beliefs get appointed to administration-controlled posts. 'Tis a pity, and it's very bad for the long-term future of the USA. /soapbox. That is a very good point, and the BBC ran an article recently on Bush administrations hostility to science.. [sic]America is rapidly turning into a christian fundamentalist dictatorship. Incidents such as the suppression of climate change information and the teaching of "Intelligent Design" in schools give a clear picture of the American government's distain for any science that can't be used to bomb people into submission. ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+
  6. So were the folks of New Orleans just owed some bad karma Karma my arse.. come on people get real.... do we really need a bunch of superstitious crap that tells us we reap what we sow.... hey why dont we "just be nice" to others, and not because we believe in some mystical reward scheme.. were not in the dark ages any more..... ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+

  8. I will admit that this is post verbatim from another forum I read, and in light of all the god talk of late, I thought this raised a good point.. Now can any of the God squad here perhaps help us understand how this praying thing works? ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+

  10. well then this means you are eligable for the JREF challange... Heres the application forms
  11. Correct Incorrect Dude, did you even read what you posted?? Is this chap aware of something that is unknown to modern day science…. Complete quackery… demonstrates a clear lack of understanding about EMF and EMF detection.. (see comment below) Perfect example and demonstration of the idometer effect… ***“A second reason for the two rods crossing is that of dowsing over an alternating current source, such as a pipeline or buried cable. these are usually buried shallow and are conducting ground currents as the path of least resistance.”*** Again complete quackery and lack of understanding about Alternating current, and beside the last sentence doesn’t even make sense… If the current was indeed alternating, and the woo woo rods where somehow detecting this EMF, then surely they would cross and un cross repeatedly…. Anyway most of the flummery that you posted claims that dowsing works via Electro Magnetic Fields (EMF).. However that doesn’t explain how you dowsed for water.. but let’s just skip that… Incase you were unaware technology of today boasts enormously sensitive detectors. To put things into perspective, consider the example that technology enables us to receive radio signals (low-frequency electromagnetic radiation) from distant satellites travelling on the verges of our solar system. The emitter of these signals has the power of 20 watts, i.e. the same power as a very weak light bulb. This light we are able to see and interpret from billions of kilometres away. But we can't detect the field that causes a Y-rod to swing so fast it can almost hurt you. If dowsing actually exist, the forces involved are very likely something else than electromagnetic radiation. Controlled field and laboratory tests have failed to establish the validity of dowsing, and judged by scientific standards the practice has little basis in fact. - Encyclopedia Americana So to conclude my offer still goes to give you the benefit of the doubt in that if you actually believe you can dowse, then I can put you in touch with someone who, after you have successfully proved that you, or anyone in fact can dowse, they will pay you $1million … now for something that you say is fact and works, and you have done yourself.. then you have nothing to loose and Million bucks to gain… 1. Can you dowse – YES or NO.????? ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+
  12. edited to add - Edit your footage with PremPro then export movie as Mpeg2, sont bother compressing it with PremPro.... Use a program called VirtualDub, its free.... Download the Divx codec, http://www.divix.com if you can get hold of it, try to find a copy of Divx-pro, although its not free. which means spending money, although i have heard of people p2p'ing it... personally I wouldnt know. Then download a program called Virtual Dub http://www.virtualdub.org/index You will also need to download and install the a MP3 encoder, for virtual-dub, and the best one is the Fraunhofer IIS Mp3Enc http://www.dbpoweramp.com/...-central-franmp3.htm Ok once you have downloaded and installed Virtual Dub, Divx and MP3 Enc, your ready to go. I would suggest that you read up on Virtual Dub, also… Once your ready to go, 1. drag and drop the uncompressed .AVI file into Vdub. 2. select Audio 3. select Full Processing Mode 4. Select Audio / Compression 5. In the compression window select MP3 then select what compression you want 6. select Video/Full processing mode 7. select video/filters If you intend to play the finished file on a pc then you will need to De-Interlace it. 8. In the video/filters menu select “add” and then De-interlace, then in the box that appears select “blend both fields” 9. select video/compression 10. select the divx codec and click configure, under the general parameters tab should be “enable resize” click it as the size of the video you have will be 720 x 576, so you will want to bring that down, say to 320 x 240, or what ever you want. 11. on the “divx codec” tab select the encoding bitrate that you want, the lower the bitrate the more the compression. 12 select file/save as .avi and that’s it. I know this seems a little complicated, but once you have used V-dub a couple of times you will have the hang of it, and the results will be a lot better as you have more control. Also play around with the Video/Audio/compression settings to see what gives you the bet results; I found that it took a few attempts to get the file size/quality that I wanted. I just compressed a 4GB .AVI, with Vdub got it down to 116MB whilst still maintaining fairly good quality at 600x400 picture size… Hope this helps ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+
  13. what are you capturing from?? is it DV from a camera, or VHS from Video? From that size of the file it sounds like your capturing raw DV.. if this is the case then the capture size will always be large, as it is uncompressed ..... once you have captured your footage you can then compress it with Premiere.. what do you want to do with the captured footage??? ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+

  19. Sorry champ, but dowsing, after astrology is the most widely debunked pseudoscience out there…. Most of the time it is the result of the idometer effect, or just luck… Although I will give you the benefit of the doubt here and if you genuinely believe that it works and you can “dowse” then you could make yourself a $Million dollars… Interested????? Besides what effect do you think the water has on the rods that causes them to move???? ----------------------------------------------------------- --+ There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.. --+

  21. No, don’t believe in Satan, or the devil, God, Jesus, or Father Christmas, ghosts, goblins, fairy’s, spirits, souls, orbs, homeopaths, psychics, dowsers, mediums, Spontaneous human combustion, lay lines, cold fusion, hollow Earth theory, spoon bending, alien abductions. or any other unproven pseudoscience crap…..
