Damn, you all just rip on Scott like it's cool.
We didn't want him to feel left out since we all rip on each other constantly
Do all these wireless display consortium's not know about DLNA servers? I've been wireless pushing music, pictures, video to and from TVs, computers, and phones in my house. I like to use XBMC but even windows media player that comes with Windows 7 natively does this. I'm surprised no one on the podcast brought up this point.
And poor Scott :(
Well, at least for WiDi, one of the features that DLNA can't do is stream the live desktop such that the TV can be used as a larger monitor. Aside from that, yeah people have been DLNA for getting media to the TV for a long time!
Ahhh, so it at least differentiates itself somewhat. Speaking of desktop sharing our good friends at Microsoft not only have decided to start added animated ads in the middle of our Skype calls but have also removed the ability share your desktop out of the free version. Now in order to show someone else your screen you now have to pay for premium Skype.
I have to say, I'm not surprised!
Li-th-ening (listening) to the la-th-t (last) podca-th-t (podcast) wa-th (was) hell on the ear-th (ears).
Between the distortion, lisps, mis-pronounciations, and the one "special guest" that that Thkype'd (Skype'd) in, sounded like he was talking thru...well, I can't describe what he sounded like other than it sounded absolutely horrible.
Do us all a favor and load one of the podcasts in any wave editor and look at the peaks and clipping.
Horrid...
It sounded like I was talking through a gaming headset mic and 600-800 kbps upload while also trying to send a high res webcam feed.
The only other option (unless I somehow can bond 3-or-4 DSL modems here) is 2mbps up unlimited cable for 210$/mo.
Do not have the money for that yet. When some of my other projects go online I might have the funds to justify it though.
holy shit, $210 a month!? 0.0 And I thought Comcast was insane :P
Welcome to Canada.
Although the price I quoted was an unlimited plan.
I could technically get a 20-24/3.2 VERY solid connection (as solid as I have now, just faster) for ~130-170/mo... if I had 4 phone lines coming in the house.
holy crap :P Hopefully your house is wired with Cat5e for phone lines so you have four pairs to play with :D
I don't understand why tech sites still use Skype to run podcasts. I can understand using skype for convenient video feeds but the call quality is just so absolutely terrible with horrible latency.
Do yourselves a favour and run everyones audio through a mumble server. You won't be tripping over each other due to laggy Skype servers, you'll sound far better and still easily be able to exclude environmental sounds like keyboards and children. Even with a crappy mic you'll still come out sounding far better than using Skype.
No offense to the dude, but Scott needs a better mic....Seriously...
Yeah I got this mic because it does not pick up my mechanical keyboard that well and is convenient to use for personal calls.
When I get more money I expect to get a Heil or something for recordings and podcasts.
Is Scott really Josh with hair? I think that is a complement for one of you but I'm not sure who. Anyways the mic was fine.
LOL!
