Flipping through the channels and I found, :shit: Moto gp FREE TO AIR :shit: on Shell Helix Motorsport (channel one from three pm) yesterday, 125,250, interviews & 500 (showed most of the race due to the epic battle between Biaggi and Rossi.

O.k So it was only highlights and it had to share its time with truck racing, and it was a week late, but it was on! :Punk:

Jeff Bryan promises more next week. :Punk:

A week late? More like three! That was round one in Sarf Effrica they showed yesterday, you know. Unless I missed something and they showed Jerez as well after I turned it off in disgust.

I'm afraid you'll still have to wait on my downloaded goodness... but I have a tasty surprise to make up for the wait. I'll finally have a proper converted and burned DVD (as opposed to MPEG on CD) of the race tomorrow morning.

If anyone other than BD wants it in non-.wmv format or on a DVD, let me know...

Sweet as candy, Are you going for sainthood?

Thought it did not sound right when they said STH AFF still if you've got Jerez and Yesterday was three weeks old I will still need to watch next week. Maybe if they get enough viewers they will move it up a couple of weeks.

Maybe we should all do our bit and email whoever we need to at TVNZ thanking them for providing the coverage they have, and asking what dates they have prepped for future rounds... can't hurt can it?

Anyone know the exact point of contact we need?

You can turn a .wmv into a .avi using wmv2avi, You may need to resize the frame and change the frame rate before turning it into a suitable mpeg to use on a dvd.

I use wmv2avi -> premiere -> encore (DVD authoring/burning)
