I have to admit, I havn't had a chance to listen to the podcast yet, but I will get around to it soon.

This goes more toward the technical aspect of it.

If you continue with this podcast, I would suggest that you release an mp3 version of it, you don't have to stop using mp4, but mp3 is more universally compatible. It also looks like the audio quality is 190k/s for something like this you can actually drop it to 64k/s without it being that noticable, you'd want to go higher if you were doing a lot of music, but for just talking a lower bitrate is fine.

I've attached a copy that was converted to 65k/s mp3 (the conversion software I used wanted to encode at 65k so i let it.) If you listen you can hear compression artifacts here and there, but it's not bad and much smaller

Actually Loup it is 90kb a second.

We'll probably play more with formats in the next one.

What?! No "KHAAAAN!" scream to tell you your listening to the Benheck podcast? Really I'll listen to the pilot tomarrow, I'm just too busy. I can say that if it's anything like the podcasts you've guested on it's will be side splitting funny.

I thought it said 190 when I was looking at the file, but I was just skimming over the information, I'll double check the next time I go spouting off :wink:

My media converter for my GBA Movie Player doesn't accept mp4's, and the converter also keeps iTunes/quicktime from working, and thus I can't watch the file!

Can somebody please convert the podcast into a .mov for me?

And no, I'm not going to uninstall my GBA Movie Player converter just to watch a podcast. I kinda can't find the driver disc right now...

Oh, how stupid of me. I thought it was video because it opens with quicktime. Can somebody make it Mp3 then? I really want to hear this, maybe I can contribute in future issues, that would be really cool. I could review the Wii when it comes out!

I got dibs on the Wii review!

Loup already converted it to mp3. See the post above or you can go to the below link. Hope you enjoy it.
