It looks like
daapd has been released (thanks to Paul Boyum for finding that one). That's cool, although I want a DAAP 2.0 client too. Maybe I'll get around to it next week sometime. Looks like Todd Larason has
more notes on DAAP up on his website, although they appear to all be for DAAP 1.0. Spent way too much time reading about DVDs, MPEG, and recording. I think I may start archiving movies to DVD, which could be fun. In preparation I bumped the bitrate up a bit and changed the resolution to 720x480 rather than 480x480. MythTV is saving directly as .mpg files even though they're named .nuv, so there's not much work to copy out to DVD with the new resolution (audio is already 48k). We'll see how that goes. I just need a better supported sound card now for stuff not worth burning... Another day with way too much time spent watching recorded TV. I hadn't watched
The Red Green Show in quite a few years, and forgot how funny it is. Also, music video programs on MTV and VH1 are decent when you can just quickly skip through them to see if they managed to throw in a good video or two and just trash it if not. And even though
The Italian Job is being promoted so much you'd think it was sure to be crap, Ebert and Roeper seem to be in agreement that it's a good flick. Now the question is will I actually get off my butt and go see it, or will I just wait and get the DVD in a few months... I need to get back on a regular schedule - rumor has it I may have to go up front in church tomorrow because of something with college graduates. That can't be good...
