Help Needed - Technical

Is there any other form of Internet out that doesn't need a telephone line ? I know there are dongles but I've heard they are poor and unreliable, I'm on AOL at the moment I pay a set price of £35 and I get free phone calls to 01 or 02 but I rarely use my landline so I was wondering if there was a way I can get the Internet with the use of a phone.

Can I just ask about recording from a DVD recorder, if I decide to record a show 1 day and then I decide to record another show on another day, is that possible to do on one disk?

Yes, assuming you have the space on the disk if you do not want to delete the first recording.
There would be no problems with a DVD-RW or DVD+RW rewritable disk, but if you are using DVD-R or DVD+R disks, you must not finalize them until after you have recorded all that you want to on the disk. After finalizing disks, no more can be recorded to them.

did you finalize the disc in the dvd recorder after recording your content? untill you do that the disk will appear empty to your computer.

Oh cheers for that, don't think I did finalise it

are there any members on this forum that record from dvd recorders and then post vids from them on this forum?.

Reason i am asking is because everytime i check the file size on my computer it comes up to 0.99gb for every vid?. Thats why im quite baffled as to why each video file is so big and obviously it takes ages to upload on rapidshare.

I really want to share the content i have but its unbelievable how big the size of a vid is even if you record for like 20 mins.

can anyone help in regards to how i can have the size shortened down?, there must be a few guys on here that upload content recorded from their dvd recorder so can you help?

thanks

Those who record the shows via Sky+/DVD recorder, transfer those large VOB files to their PC, then convert/compress the files to a different format (.mp4, .mkv, .avi etc) using video editor/converter software. The gain in file reduction size is large and will result in people bothering to download a file, while the reduction in quality is relatively low, particulary given the low quality resolution at which the babe channels broadcast. There's various other threads in this section on such software - a couple examples of free such software are MPEG Streamclip and AVI Demux. Like any application, it can take a little while to work it out and get the hang of using it, but once you have, the process becomes relatively simple.
