[Cajun]

Hoon pm ya address, that means there be three copys in auckland two of the 3 have burners, so auckland crew if you are wanting this talk to duckman or hoon, or you can borrow it off Zed, There be a copy in hamilton and k14 will be getting a copy in Chch.

Any of the wellywood crew want a copy postage, i know wkid_one has a burner, but any one else down there, want a copy, you can share around??

[k14]

When I get it i will rip it to Xvid or divx so I can burn it to normal cd if anyone wants one.

[Cajun]

what a waste dc:< its the full dvd plenty of us got dvd burners, and i can get blank dvds just as cheap as blank cds less than 80c a dvd


no its cheaper than 74cents each

[Shade]

I'd be keen to get the movie on DVD instead of CD - If anyone is willing to burn me a copy i'd be willing to pay for blank dvd / postage etc.

Cheers!

[Hoon]

Hoon pm ya address, that means there be three copys in auckland two of the 3 have burners, so auckland crew if you are wanting this talk to duckman or hoon, or you can borrow it off Zed,

Awesome dude cheers!! If I get a copy by Thurs I will be at the AMCC clubrooms this Thurs night so guys PM me if you want me to make you a copy for you to pick up.

Otherwise I will be at the Pukekohe track day on Sat (weather permitting).

[Ghost Lemur]

When I get it i will rip it to Xvid or divx so I can burn it to normal cd if anyone wants one.

Mmmmm I'd be in for some of that lovin...

*That's a "can I have a copy please" :D*

[erik]

Darn, makes me wish I'd got a dvd drive as well!!!

Hoon, can I get a copy off you some time? I'm in Titirangi too, could I pick it up somewhere more local?

All the other computers in the house have dvd drives, so I'll see if I can use one of them and figure out how to convert it to DivX.

[Darryboy]

I've got a writer too... haven't used it yet though.
But I'd love a copy

[Cajun]

OKay few copys heading to orckland, one to hammyhole one to wellywood, and one to chch.

I hopeful get them in post today, fast post so the contacts have them tomorrow then they got a few days to burn them before everyone wants it for the weekends. I post up later who in each area has them, and to contact them

[gav]

When I get it i will rip it to Xvid or divx so I can burn it to normal cd if anyone wants one.
Hey, normal CD would be great, put me down for one, cheers
Gav

Chch - K14

Have fun and enjoy

[Cajun]

Just finshed watching this story at work, bloody awsome story.

Parts after the credits was good too

[k14]

Sweet, will be pitching the tent down by the letterbox tonite.

[Cajun]

you should have got it today, i sent it yesterday lunchtime by fast post

[riffer]

Arrived yesterday.

Left work at 3pm and scrambled home for rugby practice, then back home to watch the movie.

The young fella (Tim - 4) and I sat down to watch it, and as expected, the quality was pretty damn good.

Some great action, good interviews, lots of crashes - no hiden camera footage of the Rossi/Biaggi punch-up (damn).

I was a bit disappointed at the lack of footage about the new 4-stroke era but, as the film was shot in 2001/2002 season, that's hardly surprising...

Tim loved it. "Oh man, dad - look at Rossi's wheelie!!" "look dad - he fell off just like you did! (yeah thanks buddy)."

He was a bit confused by Rossi not having a blue bike but that was easily explained. He can't remember last year's racing much. Well he was only 3...

Interesting to see them portray Biaggi as the sad, tortured hard worker desparately trying to compete with Rossi's innate genius. Maybe a little over the top, but the heart rate charts said a lot. Rossi's heart rate never goes over 125 in a race! Biaggi's regularly goes up to and over 175!

A bit too much concentration on riders who they thought were going to be stars but who we now know never made it, and some of the storytelling was a bit disjointed but its still one of the best motorcycle documentaries I've ever seen.

Anyway, despite its flaws, I am recommending it to all of you.

svs, matthewt, kiwizrx and deano, I will have your discs done today.

I am going over to WMCC at lunchtime to check out the new Triumph. I'll either see you there, or you can pop by at my work.

[Quasievil]

Ive been going home five times a day and it still isnt in the letterbox:disapint: Im waiting for it desperately:weep:

[Hoon]

Yep mine just turned up on my desk today (so much for Fastpost!!!). Cheers Cajun!

Are the bridges still out in Bay of Plenty? Is it still raining?

Maybe the post had to come through by waka...

[Cajun]

shrug maybe, stupid post, i bet you if i put it normal post would have got there at right time, since i sent 5 of them at same time, i got to you in wellington before it got to hoon in auckland strange

[phil_elvey]

what a waste dc:< its the full dvd plenty of us got dvd burners, and i can get blank dvds just as cheap as blank cds less than 80c a dvd


no its cheaper than 74cents each

Hey Cajun, how can you get blank DVDs at that price? I have a DVD Burner on the way. Damn they're cheap these days..

[Motoracer]

Tim loved it. "Oh man, dad - look at Rossi's wheelie!!" "look dad - he fell off just like you did! (yeah thanks buddy)."

LOL Kids, you gotta love em... So, have you started your young'n on two wheels?

[duckman]

Heya Cajun,

Got mine iin the mail yesterday - Your a bloody star, Thanks.

I'm burning copies now.

I paid $50 for a pack of 5 DVD's - I think I just got ripped off??!! :Oops:

Duckman - you could have bought archival quality DVD-RW's at that price.... ouch

MR - he's mastering the whole bike thing at the moment. We tried him on a PW50, but his balance is not quite up to it yet (nor is my finances).

He's been told he can have a PW50 or similar for his 6th birthday.

Although he loves the motogp and superbikes, motocross is his favourite - he is insistent he wants a DIRT bike.

Who am I to argue? Best place to start, I reckon.

A few people have commented on this now.

I wonder if you've got DVD players that are set to PAL, and/or are looking for regional coding.

It appears the DVD is an NTSC one, and has no regional coding.

Try and set your dvd's for NTSC, and/or disable the regional coding and you may have more success.

I have had no troubles with my DVD player, a mustek with regional code checking and macrovision protection cracked.

[Blakamin]

And dont i feel like a dick for riding 50k and forgetting to take an address :argh:

[Hoon]

Yeah and mine comes out black & white when played on a PS2 but its fine on the Xbox.

[enigma51]

I also want a dvd copy or if someone can tell me where I can buy it that will be great :moon:

[riffer]

Yeah and mine comes out black & white when played on a PS2 but its fine on the Xbox.
Yeah, interestingly formatted DVD.

I tried to copy it at first using my old standby, DVDShrink.

I got an error message telling me it was incorrectly formatted.

I got around it by copying the files out of the VIDEO_TS folder onto my hard drive, then opening Nero 6, and telling it to create a DVD_VIDEO disk.

Then it was a matter of copying the files from the hard drive into the VIDEO_TS folder on the DVD.

Not sure what the format problem was, but I've had no problems playing it on computer or DVD Player.

I've watched it three times now. Gini is now completely bored with it :)

[loosebruce]

Yeah and mine comes out black & white when played on a PS2 but its fine on the Xbox.

Another DVD i have SETH: The Hard Way, does that in a ps2, but no worries i have dvd player anyway, i had to come stright to work from puke today :confused2 was so tempted to be "late" and watch a bit, cheers for the copy hoon, now back to work so i can get home and watch it.

[speedpro]

Talking of copying DVDs, has anyone checked the prices of dual layer DVD burners - sub $200, US$ I would think but even so it has to be the way to go nowadays. I haven't seen any media in the shops yet or even advertised apart from on the web.

Look for Sony DRU700A, check it out here - http://www.dvd-burner.ca/Sony-Dual-Layer-DVD-Burner.html

[Cajun]

duckman - i get all my computer parts from a company called www.qmb.co.nz

celticno6 - thats how i downloaded the files, and just burnt it using nero

Speedpro - i have read that my single layer i should be able to convert to dual layer, no cds around to test so i not trying it yet. alot of the burners have same laser in them for single and dual its just the bios which is different

[Kwaka-Kid]

cajun - QMB rocks eh! used to live really close, their english was never the best but their prices were.. mind you now i use www.pricespy.co.nz and sometimes find it cheaper elsewhere.

[Shade]

Cheers to Hoon, I just got my copy of Faster tonight, made my night hoon!!! :headbang:

i still have the dvd iso sitting here, as well as fast bikes 3-4 iso

[erik]

if anyone in auckland wants a DivX of faster on cd, pm me. It's reasonably good quality, I dunno if it could be done better, I'm new at encoding movies.

[riffer]

I have a copy of Faster at work here, no-one seems to want...

First to call me on 4743040 can have it gratis.

It's on a DVD-R, so make sure your DVD player can play it. I know Jim2 and pete376403 have had problems with DVD-R disks, but most people seem okay.
