Approximately 22 minutes remaining.
What am I doing?
I'm saving a file, which I had to go to immense lengths to make room for on my hard drive, since I can't save it directly to the external. Yadda yadda.
I'm actually still dealing with the last bout. I know, I got it done, but then I just was so exhausted and it was so late anyway that I didn't ever get the final step done and burn the fucking thing. So I have to do that now, so i can get those files out of the way and start working on this past Saturday's bout.
I know.
It's fun, really it is. But I'm just so burnt, I don't feel like doing it. Last time I was so excited when i got the video files to look at, I dove right in just to watch it and see how it was. This time I'm like, whatever, it's some chicks skating, like I care.
So that's a bummer.

Yeah, this is the first of two files I have to do this with, and it's taken about a half hour so far. Then I have to transfer the file to the other computer, which will take maybe another half hour. Then I have to recompress, and we're talking about four or five hours there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Good stuff.

At least when I'm procrastinating I get good inspiration on totally other random projects. Does anyone want to read some fic/erotica? I haven't posted any fic in like months. Since I never tag entries, I have no idea if that's true. But I haven't written anything non-erotic in for-freaking-ever. Maybe I'm just not cut out to write novels that don't have ripped bodices on the cover. (As an aside, yesterday while high on total lack of cold medicine, I actually wrote a scene that involved ripping a bodice! I was highly amused. That one's not done, though, so I won't post it. Bonus? It was plausibly Eomer/Lothiriel. Yes!! Lordy I love me some stereotypes.)

edit: I can't drag the file to the external either! Since it's FAT32 formatted it can't handle a file that big!!
No biggie, I'll transfer it wirelessly to the other computer.
It's only going to take FOUR HOURS TO GET THERE.
And I can't do the next one until it's gone, because I have to delete this one once it's transferred, so that I'll have the room.
Yes this is AWESOME!

I don't think I know anyone who does video, do I?
I thought that the last bouts I did I just couldn't figure out how to do the audio, so I just didn't think about it very much.
This one I'd very much like to have audio in it. But I'm just playing the raw files pulled straight off the camera in Quicktime, and they have no audio.
Is there something wrong with the camera settings?
I can only get the audio to play in MPEG Streamclip, which is software I downloaded for free off the Internet to clip the video into smaller pieces. So there *is* audio, but Quicktime and iMovie don't recognize it being there!!
WTF?

I don't even know where to being asking about this.
