On the Topic of Stupid
“If I master a movie with Windows Movie Maker and I burn it to a DVD-R as a DVD, how can I get it back onto the computer?”
…was the question that I was just asked. Besides the stupidity of using WMM, what really got to me here was the way he tried to sound so knowledgeable about the topic. I would imagine that if he was able to encode the thing, he would have a copy already on his computer, but apparently not. Short post that isn’t really important but is just a minor vent about encoders being retarded.
In that regard, a Certain Man in Sydney that I will not name has gone and shown himself to be just as stupid as I suspected by going on about how great encoding on servers is. Sure it’s faster on the upload and possibly on the processing depending on the gear, but that doesn’t make it better. For one thing, CLI encoding is almost impossible to watch over and ensure quality on. YATTA isn’t exactly made for server use either. Fuck you, CommieSubs, for bothering to put out shit when all you do is kill the scene.
