Went back and forth about releasing this one for months, because at the time we recorded it, Chris and Chad were nigh unknown DIF entities. But after a couple weeks of Hanel-ing, I figure you're ready for the supremely magnificent UHF discussion.

Written by Pegg and Frost. Didn't find out until the end, and wish I had known during the advertising period not that it was "directed by the director of Superbad," but "written by the writers of Shaun of the Dead."
Then again, a good deal of my appreciation might have been the whim viewing, with no pre-conceived notions.
Yeah, it'll be up again soon.
Yessir, thanks.
It occurred to me today that I can also record the video (and thereby audio) straight out of our broadcast program. I just uploaded an 1:47:00 video to YouTube.
...which I guess we could do with DIF, if anyone wanted us to, but. Eh.
Well, tomorrow we're not doing a commentary, we're judging the annual lightsaber thing - and afterwards recording a special, non-Down in Front thing to be announced when we record it, I guess.
But to answer your question, we start doing things at noon PST.
Yeah, the mic line-in to the recorder got yanked out somehow.
Torrents? Maybe? I don't know how big the underground Asylum film-trading scene is.
I'd like to live in a world where it is handled exclusively by the directors of said films.
Welcome to the forum, sonnyjim, it's about time. ![]()
I appreciate it. Tomorrow we're going to start playing with different recording systems to see if we can find a more stable one, so hopefully we don't need the back-up, but if by god's fucking will something goes wrong, your recording will be good to have.
Tomorrow we're doing our second annual live judging thing for the Lightsaber Choreography Competition, but we might be sneaking in a special little something afterward. I'll let you know today.
It's doubly adorable imagining that conversation in polite-old-lady Scottish.
I'll get to it today. It's not a real site yet. ![]()
That it was Phil Tippet was the only reason I felt compelled to share it here, so I guess you getting the joke was never part of the equation.
I just keeding.

Shabams.
The DIF kit, such as it is, goes like this.
Four microphones go into the mixer board.
The output line is split between the laptop and a second splitter. That splitter breaks off into the broadcast line-out, which goes over to the laptop handling the webcam, and the headphones. (Which means more splitters, two in fact.) The result is four headphones being connected.
So,
Output
Splitter - Laptop, Splitter
Splitter 2 - broadcast laptop, two more splitters that branch out into four headphone cables.
In that case, everybody hold off on donating.*(*) First thing we're gonna try is Mike's laptop with a better program. If that fails, we have a personal recorder that Brian owns. If that fails, we'll get the Zarban thing.
*Zarban, we'll pay you back retroactively with three years of commentaries. MOTHER FUCKER WE KILL YOU{*}
*(*)Everybody still donate, for fuck's sake, I'm just saying we're not gonna buy the toy yet.
*{*} Zarban, if you want your money back, I'll order you a pizza.
Complex use of asterisks is about to be my new favorite thing.
Well, I can keep an eye on the donation inbox and let y'all know when we've reached $120 or so, which is what they seem to cost at most vendors, so nobody would have to set up a special account or anything.
