Hey first comment
High Five. Qwerty_ is a noob but is awesome. He knows what he’s talking about! this show is heaps good (bit laggy 4 me but)
Haha very funny Scooter. Glad you liked it though.
good effort mate keep it up
good work, not to bad but i would of liked to see some more in-game footage.
Lol i really liked it, you know what your talking about…but you should play it more AND ON GA SERVERS 
Interesting attempt. Tips:
1. You can hear your computer’s fans in the background. Don’t be afraid to do the audio far away from the computer or use a sound editor to reduce the specific noise.
2. Informative but a bit bland - try to add some humour, some props, some spoof.
3. Try to get a friend in on the act. Always more easier and more fun to do things with a bit of help.
Thanks for your tips Free Gamer, I appreciate them greatly. I realise that audio is a problem and I have a few ideas on how to combat this in future episodes.
niiiice bro … lol audio sounds fine to me lol :S .. ahha yeh man chuck sum humour in to it , Great Job!
Thanks heaps - this is incredibly helpful to me, and your style is clear and concise.
I hope my email will come through ^^ great show btw
Yes your e-mail did come through qubodup, much appreciated too.
Haha nice video. Found it through Free Gamer. Is the aspect ratio on the video funky? I went to the source site and it looked okay, maybe just the way you’re embedding it. Now you just have review my game then i’ll be famous =D
Yeah I need to correct that for future episodes. I think that the footage was resized to 4:3 when I recorded it in widescreen.
Ill have to have a look at irrlamb.
Its great seeing a vodcast about Linux free games
Few things:
Could you please encode the episodes as
AVI files with XVID video and MP3 or OGG sound please
or an OGM file with XviD video and OGG/MP3 sound
As WMV is proprietary and your show is about open source isnt it ?
If you record the video in WS/16:9/16:10 then please leave it in the
recorded format . Otherwise if you could setup the camera to
record in Full screen/4:3 that would be AWESOME
I dont know if you know about the Souretrunk podcast
its a podcast all about open source software , really good show
Maybe the two shows could pimp each other

Good luck with upcoming episodes
If you need a http site to host the files then try:
http://www.archive.org/ , megaupload , rapidshare
I will have to look into different editing programmes since I use Windows Movie Maker
Or just re-encode them with ffmpeg (might be a good idea)
I know of the DB anime group that encodes XVID/MP3
files using Windows Movie Maker.
You should be able to load the uncompressed file
and re encode it as an AVI file with XVID video
and Mp3 sound.
