Well spotted Steve. I will DVD it for anyone who can't watch it

I'd be very interested in that, and any other years they choose to show.  As luddites with no TV, we either have to watch live, or on a PC.  I'll obviously reimburse the cost of discs, postage, coasters produced by duff discs etc.  ;)   Either DVD or VCD format, whichever is easiest.

Pehaps Smokie (or someone else if he is too busy) can do an editing job to get rid of the adverts same as he did with the Creation Autosport Series.

I presume that Motors TV will be showing quite a few of these in the run up to the race as they advertised when they announced they would be showing the whole 24 hours. ;D

Oh well, Mrs BOB U will have to watch her soaps elsewhere

Pretzel.......seems to be our resident editing expert.

He recently edited the Sebring coverage for Piglet!!

Ask him nicely....and he might do it for you

It certainly would be a plus, not to have to endure the adverts  ;)

Bob,

I would quite happily take a copy off your hands and if necessary edit and distribute a few if required.

Unfortunately I couldn't edit the Sebring coverage that Piglet recorded as it was recorded in 'Long Play' format.

We've just watched it, what a fantastic programme  ;D   The commentary with the wonderful Neville Hay was just great  ;D

absolutely brilliant ;D  no chance of anything near as good as that this year

Pretzel, I will record any future programmes onto 1 DVD and post off to you for editing, unless you want to do them week by week

If anyone else, like me, missed it, it's on again Wednesday at 1400 and 2300, and again on Friday at 1300 and 1800 and again on Sat and Sun.

I have already set the Sky box to record it this time

What an excellent way to pass an hour.  Some wonderful commentary and filming, it nearly brought a tear to my eye.

Now where's that Time Machine ...... set date ..... 1988 ......................................................................................................

bollox back too late, missed it, hold on i haven't got sky anyway  :( :'(

Cheers DB, will record it tomorrow :)

Sounds like a good idea to me, rather than doing it piecemeal week by week. Mind you at an hour each programme (less, say, 12 mins per hour for advertising) still only allows for 2.5 programmes per DVD.  Any idea how many programmes there are in total?

I'll PM you my address details.

What fantastic memories of my first trip, just turned up bought a ticket and camped on Houx without pre booking, having ariived on Friday morning. What about that vehicle that they used to pull the Jag out of the sand.

I am presuming there is one every week up until the race.

On my recorder I can record on different qualities which give me more space at a lower quality. I can get 4 hours at a of decent stuff so if the series runs up to June I can get the lot on 2 discs

Can I put my name on the list for a copy of disk 1 as soon as it is available, three weeks time presumably  ;)

Next Tuesday 9th May 1800hrs ----- 1993

Paddy - don't know which version of Motors TV you receive - the UK transmission times are different from the European transmission.  Check on www.motorstv.com.

Good spot.

Sounds much the same as my kit.

I'm not too sure how it handles 3rd party recordings if they are not recorded at the 'standard' resolution (whatever that means) - you may have noticed my earlier posting when I mentioned that I could not edit Piglet's Sebring recording as it was done in 'Long Play' but we'll give it a go.

It may be that if the DVD's are not 'Finalised' then there will be more scope for editing.

Here's a link sent to me by Malcolm (Flying Baguettes Manager  ;D) with teh full agenda

No 1991 :(
 My first year and never seen a replay of it. Must try Duke and track a copy down

Ohhh could someone get a copy onto DVD for me too please.. if it isnt too late!

Thanks

  :-*

Fran

I got my recorder all ready for tonight. Will contact you later for how to get a copy to you...

Ta very much  :)

I recorded last nights programme and will do next weeks. That will be 1988/93/98 on one disc it will then be ready for borrowing/editing whatever.
As long as it gets back to me eventually anyone is welcome to use it

I dont have copying facilities, but if someone does and can do me a copy of the 3 together would be most appreciative.

 :)

Fran, I am posting it off to Pretzel for editing after next weeks prog. Suggest you PM him to get your order in first

Job done.. thanks BobU.

 :)

The only reason I resubscribed to Sky was for Motors TV.

(And cricket.)
