Decemberists release video via BitTorrent

Technology magazine, Wired, is reporting that The Decemberists have embraced the popular BitTorrent peer-to-peer system to promote their music.

According to the story, the band and their video director were disappointed with the infrequent airings of their video for "16 Military Wives" on MTV2 and opted to release a high-quality version of the video via BitTorrent. According to the group, traditional online distribution of the videos fared no better with most music videos appearing in "postage-stamp-sized windows" with horrendous quality, in formats that are unsaveable.

The band has provided detailed instructions on use of the technology which is used for everything from the legal distribution of freely available products like Linux to music and movie copyright infringement and has been said to account for a third of online traffic. Paradoxically, BitTorrent's architecture means that the more popular the file is the faster it is downloaded.

Local Internet TV Takes Off In Austria

Posted by Zonk (29% noise) View Cyrus writes “The BBC reports on an Austrian village that is testing technology which could represent the future of television. The pilot has been so successful that Telekom Austria is now considering setting up other projects elsewhere.” From the article: “The hardware and software to turn video footage into edited programmes has been provided by Telekom Austria but this equipment, following training, has been turned over to the villagers. Any video programme created by the villagers is uploaded to a Buntes Fernsehen portal that lets people browse and download what they want to watch. ”

You have that exactly backwards - by SuperKendall (Score: 3, Interesting) Thread Outlawed? That can’t be since the very laws that protect Disney also apply to whatever third-rate TV communitied can put together.    Basically what needs to happen in regards to copyright extenstion is a end-run that cuts of Disney’s oxygen - and it’s already happening. They’ve run out of old stories to steal from and even very old stuff is still under copyright, thanks to them, and thus very expensive to get rights for. So they shut of the source of much creativity and are slowly strangling on what is left.    New media companies need to spring up that realize the value in letting people download and actualy own digital copies of media. I think perahps one of the online movie stores may go that way someday. It’s basically the only thing that will self-regulate the pressure from overly long copyright extention.

PSP Reception Lukewarm in US?

Posted by Zonk (42% noise) View There are plenty of interesting takes available on Sony’s new media/game console. The neat tricks seem to be the most popular. An Anonymous Coward writes “A blogger figured out how to batch convert e-books so they can be read on your PSP. Check out the guide here for a complete walkthrough on this method.” Meanwhile, RyuuzakiTetsuya writes “PSP Vault has a great story on how to Use Non-Duo Memory Sticks on a PSP! The process involves using an adapter that’s meant for a Sony Ericcson phone.” Via Joystiq, a way to get Tivo content on your PSP. Out in the real world there is already talk of the opening weekend sales. Doomstalk writes “According to IGN sales of the PSP have been lukewarm, with many outlets selling as little as 10 out of the 80 units they received.” The PSP is currently burning up the charts in Japan, though, where the console has been out for a while. Early adopters on a holiday weekend may not be the best yardstick. Official numbers from the first weekend of sales likely available on Monday.

Cultural handicap for adoption in the US. - by oscarmv (Score: 5, Insightful) Thread What I think no one has stated loudly enough is that in the US mobile gaming is a kids-only affair. Japan is a land of long train commutes and small living quarters that lends itself nicely to a concept like the PSP with its adults-only price tag. In the US the car culture and the “Everything is Big in America” don’t lend themselves well to adult portable gaming. They lend themselves to huge-ass TVs to plug consoles on (which helps explain why it’s the country where the X-Box has seen the greatest success).    So the PSP won’t be a dismal failure, but Nintendo will most likely end up selling more machines in the US thanks to its more kiddy-friendly price tag and image (so that stereotype might be useful for them in the end…).

Like It, Needs More Games - by MBCook (Score: 5, Informative) Thread I’ll throw my 2 cents in the ring here. I got my PSP on launch day and have a few things to day about it. First it needs more games. And no matter what people say, I think it’s safe to bet that the system will be BIG once more titles (like the announced GTA game, for example) come out. There are many A list titles that are supposed to come out in a while or be in development. That said, I bought 3 games. Lumines, Wipeout, and Twisted Metal. Lumines is fantastic. It should be bundled with every PSP. It should be built into the firmware. It should be a required purchase for anyone. The game is so simple and yet so fun. Wipeout is fun (not that good at it right now once you get past the first two difficulty levels) and Twisted Metal isn’t bad. Now there are some games I would like to see on the system. I’d love to have a PaRappa or Amplitude to carry with me. The PSP should be able to run a game like Gish without any problem too. As for the hardware it’s self there are a few things to say. First is the screen is AMAZING. Absolutly amazing. I looked at the pack in copy of Spider Man 2 and I can definatly see my self using the PSP to watch movies on an airplane or something. It looks better than most (all?) portable DVD players that I’ve seen. The only problem is that the screen (actually the whole front of the unit) are very receptive to fingerprints/smudges and such. Just a minor thing. My only other hardware comments are the WiFi and the analog nub. The WiFi doesn’t support WPA encryption, which suprises me. I hope they add it in a future update of the firmware. As for the analog nub, it is VERY hard to make small movements from center, and very easy to make larger movements like around the outside of it’s range. In short doing things like pushing the stick a little bit (like in Mario 64 to tiptoe) would be very tough. As for the other features, they intrigue me. The music playing is interesting, but I don’t think I’ll use it for that. Most of my music is in AAC (ripped it myself, so it’s unprotected) so without being able to listen to that the feature doesn’t hold much use to me. Being able to watch videos that I make (say download off the ‘net and put them on there) looks quite nice (although the 32mb memory stick would obviously have to be replaced). I can’t quite tell but it looks to me like it is possible to run programs off the memory stick. If that is true it would be great for the hacker community. I would love to be able to program the PSP. Even if they charged $50 or $100 for the dev kit. This would not be out of the question as Sony has done it twice in the past (the Net Yahorzee PS1 and the Linux Kit for the PS2). Over all it is a solid little system and very fun. I didn’t have problems with flying UMDs when the system got the littlest twitch, and the square button feels exactly like the others. The design flaws from the Japanese launch have defianatly been fixed. The system has a good future if you ask me. Sony will put their might behind it (the gaming magazines this month are about half PSP ads from Sony). Great games should be comming, and there are good games out now (plus the amazing Lumines). It has a USB port and Sony is supposed to release stuff for that (a littke keyboard for typing in games, they could make a GPS module, other interesting stuff). It should have a good future. Note that I also have a DS and I really like that too. I’ve been playing Yoshi’s Touch and Go lately. That is a simplistic game that seems kind of boring at first but after a few plays it becomes very fun as you get the hang of the controlls. It is quite unique in that respect. The DS has a good future too, for what it’s worth.

I just bought a PSP today - by maynard (Score: 4, Interesting) Thread And yeah - I like it a lot. However, it’s quite apparent that the unit isn’t selling like hotcakes.

Why isn’t it selling? I don’t know, but I’ll hazard a few guesses:    a) No display units available. Not a single store of those four had a display unit to show potential buyers. Few people are willing to shell out $250 for a game device they’ve never seen perform.    b) It’s a bit too expensive. Yes, it’s worth the money for what you get, but it isn’t cheap for a toy.    c) Game selection is limited. Yes, sixteen titles on launch.

In addition to gaming, I get to store oodles of songs that I can actually listen to on an airplane since it’s not a phone. What pushed me over the edge to buy it is definitely the potential. In addition to some of the things linked already, the register has an article about a potential email and web browser which, when combined with this keyboard that popped up, might just make me think twice about upgrading my laptop. Email/web browser aside, I’d love to see writeable UMDs come out though some how I doubt sony would give up the memory stick market so easily. Still, that would definitely make this a killer gadget IMHO. Oh, and the games are fun too.

"Blair Witch Project" director distributes new show through Bit Torrent

"Blair Witch Project" director distributes new show through Bit Torrent

Six years after making the most profitable movie of all times and pioneering Viral Marketing, "Blair Witch" creator Daniel Myrick has a new project:The Strand. Set in Venice Beach, California, The Strand features "real people and actors that populate a fictional world in which spontaneous as well as scripted dialogue bring a sense of unpredictability and realism to the characters and situations."
The Strand is episodic, but it's not a TV Show, since it won't be be seen on TV. Myrick is using Bit Torrent as the distribution channel for each "webisode" of the series, in combination with micropayment system BitPass. While the first episode is free, the folllowing ones will be 0.99$ each. According to Myrick, using Bit Torrent as a distribution channel allows him to drop down the price significantly, since an standard download of each file (around 600 MB) from a central server would have cost him around 4 dollars.

couldn’t give it up

So, the original plan was to buy the Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) and then immediate flip it on eBay. Then I saw the little sticker on the box that said it came with a copy of SpiderMan 2, full length and only modified to fit the PS screen. And I thought, hmmm… wonder how good that is?

So, I kept it and opened it up and popped in the movie. Then my jaw dropped. The video is pretty damn good, just shy of DVD quality to my eyes. Battery life is about 3-5 hours, which should be enough to watch a whole movie or two on a cross country flight. It uses normal headphones, but uses a proprietary disc format called UMD. The guys at the store mentioned that movies can be downloaded to the Memory Stick, but I suspect I’d need a 512MB MemoryStick Duo to make that remotely useful for a feature film. But, the interesting thing is that I can pop in Duo’s from my camera (not that I have Duo’s in my camera, just regular MemoryStick PROs). On my list of things to figure out is whether the PSP can act as a host for the camera, allowing me to look at the pictures on the brighter/bigger PSP screen.

The game play is pretty solid. I’ve played around with one before, but it was a golf game that really didn’t push the controls around much. This time around, I got Need for Speed: Underground Rivals to push this baby around and jam on the controls a bit. All I can say is nice job, Sony. The device is comfortable and fits well in my hands. The only complaint I have is that the analog controller is a bit odd and will take some time to get used to. I understand why they didn’t model it after the typical analog controllers found on game controllers, so I’m not criticizing the decision.

Next major feature: It supports WiFi out of the box, but I had some issues getting on my network. In fact, this was the biggest headache of all. I had it resolved within 30 minutes, if that says anything, but still I’m disappointed in the process here. The wireless connection software requires some specific settings on the router and unfortunately, the errors only come back with cryptic codes.

For example, my wireless network is set to use shared key security (WEP is enabled). Well, apparently, the PSP requires open network security. The error message that informed me of this was generic and only gave me this code as a specific reason: 80410D09 . Helpful, huh? After I Googled around for that, I fixed it and tried again. New error: 80110482 . WTF? While poking around, I retried the connection and magically it worked. Turns out the error has something to do with not getting a DHCP response (getting an IP address from the router’s DHCP server). I think I may have tried to test it too soon after changing the settings on the router… it was probably still trying to restart.

I still have yet to actually try to get on the network. Need For Speed was having trouble finding other drivers to race against online, but I’m not exactly sure why. Something else to look into.

So, I’m pretty much floored at this point. I think the move of including a movie instead of a full game is brilliant because it gets people thinking about the device differently that the Nintendo stuff that we’re all so familiar with. In fact, I’m more excited right now about using this as a cheap portable movie player and photo viewer than I am about anything else.

What will be interesting is whether movies will be available from the other studios aside from the Sony labels. Quite honestly, I haven’t been paying attention to this space at all. I’m sure the answer could be had for a bit of Googling, but this is a device that will do better with some openness. Of course, they could always go the iTMS route and stick with allowing people to download DRM’ed movies to their computers by leveraging the Duo’s. Mark Cuban (yeah, that Mark Cuban) wrote a while back about how he was able to watch DVD quality feature films from a USB flash drive. In fact, I walk around most days with at least a 1GB flash drive in my pocket. It’s how I transport work between home and office and music back and forth (wish iTunes had a “sync” feature).

Sony could use this device as Apple has used the iPod and iTMS if they can get the breadth of video content. It would be a fascinating move, especially if they could offer different formats for different devices in the home. I’d rather have a higher quality download for my TV than I would for the PSP. This would be very cool if they can pull this off.

I thought about the implications of this as I was getting over my initial excitement and wondered about the benefits of openness vs. proprietary standards. Most technologists would reflexively tell you that being open or using an open standard is better than using a proprietary spec. Yet today, we have a couple of examples where proprietary is beating open hands down: the iPod/iTMS combo and the video game market.

It seems to me that the maturity of a market is a defining characteristic of when openness matters. With the web, for example, we’re heading toward more standardization and openness than we’ve had since the very early days. Around the Netscape era, everyone was happy to use the Netscape extensions (blink tag, anyone?) because that was the only way to get new features. They were driving the market. As the market matures, we’re seeing more thought being applied to creating standards before implementing them. XHTML and CSS specs are now both ahead of the implementations, meaning that the road map for browser developers is out there… no need to make up proprietary stuff.

The online music store market is still relatively young, obviously, which is why iTMS seems to do so well. People are just happy to have a place to actually go shop and get the music they want at a price they can deal with that they’re willing to accept the restrictions of having the best portable MP3 player and a very good selection of music. If Sony were to get into the downloadable market via their online media store, I think they might enjoy the same advantages as Apple has in the music space. They’re first and they’re making it work. The gadget is amazing, and the use cases are there. I kinda hope this makes it.

(while I was writing, I decided to do a quick Google… looks like the mothership is going to release some movies on UMD, but they’re the only non-Sony shop to have signed up. I think this is Sony’s major disadvantage, if I can call it that… they’re a competitor with people they need to partner with, and I wonder if that makes it harder for them to make deals?)

WITH EXTRAS:影片带花絮

CAM - 枪版
A cam is a theater rip usually done with a digital video camera. A mini tripod is sometimes used, but a lot of the time this wont be possible, so the camera make shake. Also seating placement isn't always idle, and it might be filmed from an angle. If cropped properly, this is hard to tell unless there's text on the screen, but a lot of times these are left with triangular borders on the top and bottom of the screen. Sound is taken from the onboard microphone of the camera, and especially in comedies, laughter can often be heard during the film. Due to these factors picture and sound quality are usually quite poor, but sometimes we're lucky, and the theater will be fairly empty and a fairly clear signal will be heard.

CAM通常是用数码摄像机从电影院盗录。有时会使用小三角架，但大多数时候不可能使用，所以摄像机会抖动。同时由于放摄像机的座位并非总是空的，使得有时拍摄不是水平的。如果后期剪裁很好，这很难看出，除非屏幕下方有字幕。由于声音是从摄像机自带的话筒录制，所以经常会录到观众的笑声等声音，尤其是喜剧片。因为这些因素，图象和声音质量通常都很差。但有时很幸运电影院相当空，这样会录到好一些的声音。


TELESYNC (TS) -
A telesync is the same spec as a CAM except it uses an external audio source (most likely an audio jack in the chair for hard of hearing people). A direct audio source does not ensure a good quality audio source, as a lot of background noise can interfere. A lot of the times a telesync is filmed in an empty cinema or from the projection booth with a professional camera, giving a better picture quality. Quality ranges drastically, check the sample before downloading the full release. A high percentage of Telesyncs are CAMs that have been mislabeled.

除了使用外置的音源（一般是影院座椅上为听力不好的人设的耳机孔），TELESYSNC(TS) 和CAM的标准是相同的。这个直接的音源并不能保证是好的音源，这是它因为受到很多背景噪音的干扰。很多时候TS是在空的影院录制，或是用专业摄像机在投影室录制，所以图象质量可能比CAM好。质量的起伏可能很大，在下载前最好查看SAMPLE。很大比例 的TS是从CAM错误标记成。


TELECINE (TC) -
A telecine machine copies the film digitally from the reels. Sound and picture should be very good, but due to the equipment involved and cost telecines are fairly uncommon. Generally the film will be in
correct aspect ratio, although 4:3 telecines have existed. A great example is the JURASSIC PARK 3 TC done last year. TC should not be confused with TimeCode , which is a visible counter on screen throughout the film.

TELECINE (TC) 使用电视电影机从胶片直接数字拷贝，其图象和声音质量应该很好。但由于使用的设备和费用很高，TC很少见。通常会使用正确的高宽比，但有时也有4:3的TC。不应将TC和TimeCode(时间码)混淆，时间码是 一个在屏幕上可见的计数器。


SCREENER (SCR) -
A pre VHS tape, sent to rental stores, and various other places for promotional use. A screener is supplied on a VHS tape, and is usually in a 4:3 (full screen) a/r, although letterboxed screeners are sometimes found. The main draw back is a "ticker" (a message that scrolls past at the bottom of the screen, with the copyright and anti-copy telephone number). Also, if the tape contains any serial numbers, or any other markings that could lead to the source of the tape, these will have to be blocked, usually with a black mark over the section. This is sometimes only for a few seconds, but unfortunately on some copies this will last for the entire film, and some can be quite big. Depending on the equipment used, screener quality can range from excellent if done from a MASTER copy, to very poor if done on an old VHS recorder thru poor capture equipment on a copied tape. Most screeners are transferred to VCD, but a few attempts at SVCD have occurred, some looking better than others.

SCREENER(SCR)是在电影发行VHS录象带之前送到录象出租店及其他地方用做促销目的。SCREENER使用VHS录象带，通常使用4:3（全屏）的高宽比，但有时也会有LETTERBOXED(1.85:1宽银幕) SCREENER. 主要的缺点是有“TICKER”（在屏幕下
方滚动的消息，包含版权和反盗版电话号码）。同时，如果录象带包含任何序列号或可以导致查出录象带来源的记号，这些记号必须被遮掉，通常使用一个黑斑遮住上述部位。有时这些记号只出现几秒钟，有时也可能不幸在怎个电影中出现，而且有时会很大。根据使用的设 备，SCREENER的质量可能是极好，如果是从原版拷贝；也可能很差，如果是从翻录的拷贝录制，同时又使用很烂的捕捉设备和录象机。大多数的SCREENER被转制成VCD，现在也出现了SVCD；有些看起来比
另一些好。


DVD-SCREENER (DVDscr) -
Same premise as a screener, but transferred off a DVD. Usually letterbox , but without the extras that a DVD retail would contain. The ticker is not usually in the black bars, and will disrupt the viewing. If the ripper has any skill, a DVDscr should be very good. Usually transferred to SVCD or DivX/XviD.

DVD-SCREENER(DVDscr)和SCREENER相似，但是从DVD转制。通常是1.85:1宽银幕，但是不包括零售版会有的花絮。TICKER经常不在黑边里，所以会影响观看。如果转制者稍有技术，DVDScr应该很好。通常被转制成SVCD或Di vX/XviD。


DVDRip -
A copy of the final released DVD. If possible this is released PRE retail (for example, Star Wars episode 2) again, should be excellent quality. DVDrips are released in SVCD and DivX/XviD.

DVDRip是从最终版的DVD转制。如果可能，应该是使用预售版（比如，星球大战2）。质量应该很好。通常被发布成SVCD或DivX/XviD


VHSRip -
Transferred off a retail VHS, mainly skating/sports videos and *** releases.

VHSRip是从零售版VHS录象带转制，主要是滑冰/体育内容和***发布。


TVRip -
TV episode that is either from Network (capped using digital cable/satellite boxes are preferable) or PRE-AIR from satellite feeds sending the program around to networks a few days earlier (do not contain "dogs" but sometimes have flickers etc) Some programs such as WWF Raw Is War contain extra parts, and the "dark matches" and camera/commentary tests are included on the rips. PDTV is capped from a digital TV PCI card, generally giving the best results, and groups tend to release in SVCD for these. VCD/SVCD/DivX/XviD rips are all supported by the TV scene.

从电视（最好是从数码有线电视/卫星电视捕捉）转制的电视剧，或接收由卫星提前几天向电视网传送的预播节目（不包含加密但有时有雪花）。有些节目，比如WWF RAW IS WAR包含多余的部分；"DARK MATCHES"和CAMERA/COMMENTARY测试被包含在TVRip里。PDTV是从PCI数码电视卡捕捉，通常效果最好；破解组织倾向于使用SVCD来发布。VCD/SVCD/DivX/XviD rips也都被用于发布TVRip。


WORKPRINT (WP) -
A workprint is a copy of the film that has not been finished. It can be missing scenes, music, and quality can range from excellent to very poor. Some WPs are very different from the final print (Men In Black is missing all the aliens, and has actors in their places) and others can contain extra scenes (Jay and Silent Bob) . WPs can be nice additions to the collection once a good quality final has been obtained.

WORKPRITN (WP)是从未完成的电影拷贝转制而成，可能会缺失镜头和音乐。质量可能从最好到很差。有些WP可能和最终版本相差很远。(MEN IN BLACK的WP丢失了所有的外星人，代之以演员)；另一些则包括多余的镜头(Jay and Silent Bob). WPs可以作为有了好质量的最终版本后的附加收藏。


DivX Re-Enc -
A DivX re-enc is a film that has been taken from its original VCD source, and re-encoded into a small DivX file. Most commonly found on file sharers, these are usually labeled something like Film.Name.Group(1of2) etc. Common groups are SMR and TND. These aren't really worth downloading, unless you're that unsure about a film u only want a 200mb copy of it. Generally avoid.

DivXRe-Enc是从原始VCD发布用DivX编码成的小一些的文件。通常可在文件共享网络找到。它们通常以Film.Name.Group(1of2)等形式命名。常见的发布组织有SMR和TND。这些版本通常不值得下载，除非你不清楚某部电影，只想要200MB 的版本。一般应避免。


Watermarks -
A lot of films come from Asian Silvers/PDVD (see below) and these are tagged by the people responsible. Usually with a letter/initials or a little logo, generally in one of the corners. Most famous are the "Z" "A" and "Globe" watermarks.

很多从Asian Silvers/PDVD (参看下面)来的电影带有制作人的标记。通常是一个字母，名字缩写或图标，位于屏幕一角。最有名的是"Z","A"和"Globe".


Asian Silvers / PDVD -
These are films put out by eastern bootleggers, and these are usually bought by some groups to put out as their own. Silvers are very cheap and easily available in a lot of countries, and its easy to put out a release, which is why there are so many in the scene at the moment, mainly from smaller groups who don't last more than a few releases. PDVDs are the same thing pressed onto a DVD. They have removable subtitles, and the quality is usually better than the silvers. These are ripped like a normal DVD, but usually released as VCD.

Asian Silvers / PDVD是亚洲盗版商发行影片的，通常被一些发布组织购买来当做他们自己的发布。Silvers很便宜，在很多国家都很容易找到。发布Silvers很容易，所以现在有很多发布，主要是由一些小的组织发布；这些组织通常发布几个RELEASE后就不见了。 PDVD和Silver一样，不过是压在DVD上。PDVD通常有外挂字幕，质量也比Silver好。PDVD象普通的DVD一样转制，但通常用VCD的格式发布。

Scene Tags
发布文件的标志

PROPER -
Due to scene rules, whoever releases the first Telesync has won that race (for example). But if the quality of that release is fairly poor, if another group has another telesync (or the same source in higher quality) then the tag PROPER is added to the folder to avoid being duped. PROPER is the most subjective tag in the scene, and a lot of people will generally argue whether the PROPER is better than the original release. A lot of groups release PROPERS just out of desperation due to losing the race. A reason for the PROPER should always be included in the NFO.

根据发布规则，最先发布Telesync (TS)的组织赢得(TS发布的)比赛。但是，如果这个发布版本质量很差，同时另一组织有另一TS版本(或质量更好的同一片源)，那么标记PROPER被加到目录上以避免重复。PROPER是一个最主观的标记，很多人会争论是否PROPER比原始发布版本 好。很多发布组织只不过因为输掉了发布比赛而发布PROPER。发布PROPER的原因因该总是包含在NFO文件里。


SUBBED -
In the case of a VCD, if a release is subbed, it usually means it has hard encoded subtitles burnt throughout the movie. These are generally in malaysian/chinese/thai etc, and sometimes there are two different languages, which can take up quite a large amount of the screen. SVCD supports switch able subtitles, so some DVDRips are released with switch able subs. This will be mentioned in the NFO file if included.

对于VCD发布而言，SUBBED通常表示字幕被压进了电影。它们通常是马来语/中文/泰文等，有时有两种语言。它们可能占据了很大一部分屏幕。SVCD支持外挂字幕，所以DVDRip用外挂字幕发布。这些信息可以在NFO文件中找到。


UNSUBBED -
When a film has had a subbed release in the past, an Unsubbed release may be released

当一部电影曾经发布过有字幕的SUBBED版本，没字幕的UNSUBBED版本也可能发布。

LIMITED -
A limited movie means it has had a limited theater run, generally opening in less than 250 theaters, generally smaller films (such as art house films) are released as limited.

LIMITED电影指该电影只在有限的电影院放映，通常少于250家。通常较小的电影（比如艺术电影）的发行是LIMETED。


INTERNAL -
An internal release is done for several reasons. Classic DVD groups do a lot of .INTERNAL. releases, as they wont be dupe'd on it. Also lower quality theater rips are done INTERNAL so not to lower the reputation of the group, or due to the amount of rips done already. An INTERNAL release is available as normal on the groups affiliate sites, but they can't be traded to other sites without request from the site ops. Some INTERNAL releases still trickle down to IRC/Newsgroups, it usually depends on the title and the popularity. Earlier in the year people referred to Centropy going "internal". This meant the group were only releasing the movies to their members and site ops. This is in a different context to the usual definition.

INTERNAL发布有几个原因。经典的DVD组织有很多.INTERNAL.发布版本，这样不会引起混淆。同时，低质量的发布会加以INTERNAL标记，这样不会降低发布组织的声誉，或由于已经发布的数量。INTERNAL发布可以正常的在组织的会员 网站上获取，但没有其他网站管理员的要求它们不可以被交换到其他网站。一些TERNAL发布仍然流到IRC/NEWSGROUP，这通常取决于电影及其流行度。今年早些时候，人们把CENTROPY做为INTERNAL。这表示发布组织只向其会员和网站管理员发布。这和其通常意思不同。


STV -
Straight To Video. Was never released in theaters, and therefore a lot of sites do not allow these.

STV表示电影从未在电影院放映过就被发布，因此很多望网站不允许STV。


ASPECT RATIO TAGS -
These are *WS* for widescreen (letterbox) and *FS* for Fullscreen.

*ws*表示宽银幕，*FS*表示全屏幕。


RECODE -
A recode is a previously released version, usually filtered through TMPGenc to remove subtitles, fix color etc. Whilst they can look better, its not looked upon highly as groups are expected to obtain their own sources.

RECODE是以前已经发布过的版本，通常用TMPGenc编码过滤以去除字幕，纠正颜色等。虽然它们看起来好一些，但通常不认为这是好的行为因为发布组织应该去找他们自己的片源。


REPACK -
If a group releases a bad rip, they will release a Repack which will fix the problems.

如果发布组织发布了一个坏的版本，他们会发布REPACK来解决这些问题。


NUKED -
A film can be nuked for various reasons. Individual sites will nuke for breaking their rules (such as "No Telesyncs") but if the film has something extremely wrong with it (no soundtrack for 20mins, CD2 is incorrect film/game etc) then a global nuke will occur, and people trading it across sites will lose their credits. Nuked films can still reach other sources such as p2p/usenet, but its a good idea to check why it was nuked first in case. If a group realise there is something wrong, they can request a nuke.

一个发布可能因为多种原因被NUKE掉。有些网站会因为违犯他们的规则而NUKE发布(比如不允许发布TS版本)。但如果发布的版本有很大的问题(如20分钟没有声音，CD2是错误的电影或游戏)，那么所有的网站都会NUKE这个发布。在这些网站上交换N UKED版本的人会失掉他们的信誉。但NUKED发布仍然可以通过P2P/USENET传播，所以应该总是首先找到其被NUKE的原因以防万一。如果发布组织发觉他们的发布有问题，他们可以要求NUKE。

NUKE REASONS :: this is a list of common reasons a film can be nuked for (generally DVDRip)
常见的NUKE原因(通常是DVDRIP)：

** BAD A/R ** :: bad aspect ratio, ie people appear too fat/thin
错误的高宽比，即画面太胖或太瘦。
** BAD IVTC ** :: bad inverse telecine. process of converting framerates was incorrect.
错误的反转电视电影TC。转换祯频不对。
** INTERLACED ** :: black lines on movement as the field order is incorrect.
移动的黑线，由于field order不正确。


DUPE -
Dupe is quite simply, if something exists already, then theres no reason for it to exist again without proper reason.

DUPE很简单。如果某个电影发布已有，那么没有合适的理由就不因该允许它的存在。

EarthCore : a Podcast novel

EarthCore is the world's first podcast-only novel: you can't find it in stores, you can't download the full audio, and the only way to find out what happens is to subscribe to the podcast. The author's goal is to generate 5,000 subscribers to this book, which will demonstrate the power of Podcasting and generate attention from publishers. The novel is a cross between episodic modern-action fare like "24" and classic sci-fi movies like Predator and Starship Troopers.

Faux Fox sendup

... My friend Joe Delaplaine has done a quite funny, witty sendup of Fox News, complete with idiot announcers, inept reporters in the field, and non-stop ticker "news." Good stuff indeed. View the movie. (Quicktime, 3 min, 45 MB ) Email Joe. PS The Quicktime  file has to download completely first before streaming, anyone know how to tell Quicktime to start streaming as it's downloading? ...

Millions find alternative ways of file sharing

According to the Pew Internet & American Life Project recent survey, 36 million Americans have used ways outside of traditional paid services or P2P (peer-to-peer) networks, like Kazaa or eDonkey, to gather and swap music and video files.19% of them download music from someone else`s iPod or MP3 player, while 28%, get music and video files via email and instant messages. People also use music and movie websites, blogs and online review sites.21% say they still use P2P, although people may now be less likely to report peer-to-peer usage due to the stigma associated with the networks.

(No Title)

"Blair Witch Project" director distributes new show through Bit Torrent.

Six years after making the most profitable movie of all times and pioneering Viral Marketing, "Blair Witch" creator Daniel Myrick has a new project:The Strand. Set in Venice Beach, California, The Strand features "real people and actors that populate a fictional world in which spontaneous as well as scripted dialogue bring a sense of unpredictability and realism to the characters and situations."
The Strand is episodic, but it's not a TV Show, since it won't be be seen on TV. Myrick is using Bit Torrent as the distribution channel for each "webisode" of the series, in combination with micropayment system BitPass. While the first episode is free, the folllowing ones will be 0.99$ each. According to Myrick, using Bit Torrent as a distribution channel allows him to drop down the price significantly, since an standard download of each file (around 600 MB) from a central server would have cost him around 4 dollars.

I Know How To Ride a Pony!

Poser 6 came out some days ago and I was looking at its official website for new features etc. And animation page brought my attention to a cartoon movie called “Same Difference” by Greg Katsoulis (seems he’s greek).

You can watch that cartoon here or download it directly to your box (+12Mb). I was just astonished by the quality of that cartoon. And the end of it just made my day - “I Know How To Ride a Pony!” =D

It's the Simple Things
