O.K. scraps are all over the cutting room floor. The DBUG meeting videos are done. The bad news is the video quality is pretty poor. I talked with Neil and he said the video looked good when reviewed it for his meeting notes. I thought it might be the camcorder I was borrowing and tried a head cleaner on it but it played other hi-8 tapes fine. All I can think of is that the tape was exposed to something in the mail back process. You can see pretty much what is going on the screen, and follow along with the audio fairly well but I think if we ever do this again I'll have to find a special mailer for the tape. These are pretty much just broke up into sections of the presentations with a title added at the beginning. All videos are now unlocked. Also I recommend viewing at a resolution of 320x480 or lower. Full screen gets way too hard to see.

Neil's MSP/Xref Presentation

The second half of Neil's MSP/XREF presentaion was not recorded due to running out of film. I think it's quite mysterious that the tape was just long enough to get the MSP portion and opps, no time of Xrefs. Just kidding Neil A big thanks to you, Mark and the rest of the DBUGers for helping us outsiders get a glance into the wonderful life of a East Coast DBUG meeting.
If you liked the videos, maybe we could set something up with the DBUGers to host each meeting via the web. I also have to see how much traffic they get so my webhost doesn't freak out. Please let us know what you think. Video screen quality is on top of this wish list for sure
