appears mr. norton made a mistake but we'll let it slide once again

Stream please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can not get to the live feed. Page can not be displayed

I would watch...but my Dell battery blew up.

I'm watching the stream on my softmodded Xbox1 today. hooray for XBMC firefox plugins.

It's up already.

"double" link at the start. ;-) Now fixed.

Patrick is having hair issues...

or

... did Robert get in trouble again with his mouth?

LOL

Reinstalling on another pc. Is that allowed?

i have to say that i love DL.TV and i enjoy watching all of the epesodes of dl.tv

Patrick cant find his rug

Patrick is having hair issues?

Maybe I'll have XP reinstalled by then...Maybe not.

LOL to the max. Hair Issues are delaying the show by 15 minutes? Awesome...

Pat having hair issues...now from one balding man to another....what hair issues?

what hair??

What hair? *ducks*

Technobunny is eating Patrick's hair!

What up you ran out of gel?

Did Patrick set his remaining hairs on fire?

All kidding aside, hope it's a wonderful episode, especially if you postpone for something as little as hair.

When media play loads off the link, I get "The module couldn't be loaded."??? Any help would be appreciated.

Love the notes on the screen. Excellent communication with your audience.

I got the link! it's the link that Mr. Norton provided...

--Bradley

P.S. Just got a message on the stream saying that it'll air in 15 minutes 4:15 Pacific... 7:15 Easter 8:15 Atlantic.

I have an xbox how do I do the mod????

Hair Issues?

I lol'd

Robert is the one that could have hair issues. He has a lot of hair gel as LEO said on TWiT this week. Thats TWiT.tv.

For a friend's laptop, she uses it mostly for Skype, iTunes and browsing. Too much spyware so i'm reinstalling. Should I setup a limited account or just add all kinds of spyware removal tools and let her run as administrator? Will it cause her probs if she runs as a lim. user in XP sp2?

haha on Dell battery! I was just watching a segment on the local news, lol! I got a Dell at work! Now how do I get it to burn to a crisp, lol?! ;-)

Thanks for the note, Patrick! We got ten minutes! Talk amongst yourselves, lol! ;-)

Biker Patrick! O_O

Nice 'do rag!

This is now the message I get when media player loads:

You've encountered error message 8007007E while using Windows Media Player.

Limited Accounts do not work on XP. Do not make her Limited on XP.

Show is delayed 15 minutes, wonder why??? Where is the link for the techno love bunny?

I read an article on digg yesterday about a new show that Leo Laporte was doing that was going to be the new tech tv

He's probably pulling it out agian over the TriCaster or the feed or something.

Mabe the NSA said they would send him a free hat and Jacket if he pulled half his hair out!

hehe

Was gonna call admin account NOTPORTECTED and Limited called name-Safe. Limited is that bad huh. I have always used admin on my machine but watch what I do and reinstall regularly anyway. No experience in lim accounts except at work where I just use Office.

I getting excited, ever since TTV with TSS went belly up I've had a part of me that was missing, DL.TV has filled that hole.

--Bradley

Where is the article on Digg?

hehe

-

just remember to say hi to the nice Mr NSA Man when you send a message to the show.... because they are listening!

has anyone here ever got this show to stream on a mac. cause i can only watch it in windows

A NY Times article said that Dell OEM'd the batteries from Sony. Who makes the Mac batteries?

...and here i thought i was 15 min. late!

Beautiful!

saw clock then crashed the player

This is now the message I get when I click the link, and it loads up Windows Media Player:

The specified module could not be found.

What is this mac OS you speak of? JK...

No Audio, WTF. 15 Minutes late and now, no audio?
Oh wait. I left my headphones plugged in. (In my best Homer Simpson inpersonation) "DOH" Lol

or BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

see above

I am gettting nothing scincethe clock showed up

I didn't know you could walk cats!

I normally watch this at work during my lunch break but I caught it live tonight. The quality of the stream is wonderful. It scales up beautifully and since I have my computer hooked up to my laptop, I can see it right on the TV. Wow, it is like watching Screensavers, only without having to pay for Digital TV package.

Here is my picture of DL.TV on my TV.
http://flickr.com/photos/gregms/216394295/

Sorry if this posted twice, it wasn't showing up.

I picked up a Clix after you guys took a look at it a while back, and I gotta say I love it (I'm using it with Yahoo Music Unlimited). I've saved a ton of money listening to an album one time that ended up sucking instead of spending the $10 to $15 on the CD.

BTW, any Clix owners out there, if you download the iRiviter re-encoding software and download the iPod DL.TV downloads, it re-encodes very quickly and easily and plays great on the Clix!

Thanks guys.

Stream Very Glichy on my end, Stupid ISP!!!

Man Patrick!! that do Rag makes me wanna ride my Harley now, I wish it was together..

All I can get is video with no sound and my player crashes!

I finally can see the show live on my Mac without using Windows Media Player. A recent version of Flip4Mac Windows Media Component v2.0.2.10 does the trick. Finally, one less Microsoft product on my Mac. All that's left is Office. Arrrg.

Now I have drivers being added. Next comes SP2 updates, Firefox and Skype. Oh Joy.

And not one mention of East Meets West. Grrr.

did he say that the dell batteries that are being recalled are made by sony?

Great Show guys. Keep it coming. Lets see if you guys can talk with Leo on the show about undotv.com. Thanks Again.

the tv in dl dot tv stands for toovaloo (seriously),just its more interesting to condsider than the dot part

They read my letter, :)

first time watching the streaming show and it worked great.

Hey guys enough with the questions about the show. If you gotta answer a question about the tricaster or the show's URL just shoot the inquirer an email. How about saving those precious 45 minutes for product? What'a think? A show about the show or a show about product? Just an idea.

I get a better result by using Media Player on XP through Parallels. Kind of a long winded way of going about things but it works for me.

What hair? I thought Robert was BALD! Without high-def it's hard to tell! 8-) And Patrick, speaking of hair... (do you really want me to finish this sentence?)...

Could there be anymore Puns? Good FSM.

arrrrggg

No more puns

Why not 4:20? It's a great time.

Toupee or not toupee? That is the question...

Hey, salvation666, use OpenOffice as a subsitute for MS office. Great program, uses the MS office file formats, and comes in flavors for Mac OSX, Windows, and Linux. Check it out at openoffice.org

Thomas

I thought CA time and dates are only 3 hours behind Eastern's. What zone are you guys?

Tom

Great shows when the links work.

You must of had a big mess on that video...
I still dont see it posted..

Where's the download?

OO.o does support MS office formats but be default it uses the XML and open document formats not MS.

Shows are awesome... can't wait for the DL to be ready for download.

I estimate that your DL from the site will peak, as soon as tuesdays show is posted.
Think you can handle, 100,000 DL at one time??

???WHY???

I second that ???WHY???

You'd think episodes would be available on time after being on for so long. The dreams of replacing real tv are damn far away indeed.

They should just release the WMV from the actual stream like they did in the early days. Then I wouldn't have to capture the stream myself. I forgot to capture the stream yeaterday

Releaseing one format over any others only gets them complained at.

You are expecting the internet to be PROVEN tech..
It isnt.
With 5 Major corps ALL NOT TRYING to be the internet, and MAYBE 20 (or so) connections between ALL the Corps for ALL the USA...If 1 site goes down, it can black out 1/2 the net.
It would be truly interesting IF, these corps wouldnt FIGHT each other to make a REAL Net, that interweaves the WHOLe system..Insted of 5 spiders, fighting each other over 20 little spots that touch each other.

Screw it, Give it to the governement and have a NATIONAL phone service. Thay CANt do any worse.

Cut them some slack.

OK, where are the files??

I fail to understand why you guys even produce your program if you're not going to show it in a timely manner, tech news gets out of date in hours, to people who would watch it, commercials and all...

I'm finding it harder and harder to believe you guys are worth my time...

p.s. did Dell recall something....?

lol........

Calm down people... Go watch the show on G4.

Oh wait it sucks.

Just wait for dl.tv like everyone else.

Whine Whine Whine. Believe me I would like to watch the show too but to attack people working hard to bring you a show? Understand they have other jobs to do and never know if a machine goes down. If you are tired of watching the show and tired of them being free, providing you with good content, and normally timely fasion then go watch some of the crap out there on the internet.

Half the people whining wouldn't be if there were some post about the delay.

It is one thing to be late. It is entirely another to give your loyal viewers the silent treatment as to the status of the show.

I can forgive the former, but the latter, no.

Why so silent?

Great point "Viewer out of the loop".

I'm out of here, I'll be back next week....

I think John small barries has a vary good point....

"free"...?

"free"...?

There are commercials. It's a business, not charity...!
My time is money, a lot of it.
This show is far from free...!

If they can't get the job done (and it is a job) get some competent people who can.

stfu and stop your bitching...

they are distributing it for free to us

give them time and enjoy free tech content.

How old are you? I'm guessing 12 or 13. No one forces you to watch this show. Being as it is a downloadable item you can watch it any time you want to. So your time being so important rant is meaningless. You took the time to post a cry baby post and therefore wasted everybody elses time who had to read it.

This is a good show as is evidenced by all the people posting here waiting for the download. Keep up the good work Patrick and Robert.

Yes they are distributing it for free to us but if it was truley free then it would NOT have commercials in it.. Free would be like Twit, Diggnation... with sponser ads at the END of the shows... and if i recall diggnation dont evan take this long in distributing and Diggnation has way less ppl working for them..

Witht e vagaries of the internet.
The complications of Bandpass, and rendering, and editing, time restrictions(Like Sleeping), and depending on OTHERS to do THEIR jobs..

If you can do better, DO IT..
They probably would PAy you to do it..

You do know that these folks could go get REAl jobs, that PROBALY pay more, and Leave you all in the Dirt..

The show is free to us you tards. The commercials are there to pay for production costs and peoples salarys. No one here is paying one red cent to watch this show, so grow up already. Some people just like to find reasons to complain and bother other people.

i dont mind the commercials, i dont necessarly like to watch them... i'm still not paying anything to get dl.tv so i'm not bitching...

and you shouldn't ether.. grow up

I think 98% of the people here that are whining about the show being late are either a) spoiled, b) I think 98% of the people here that are whining about the show being late are either a) spoiled, b)

This show is not vital to your survival and is not costing you any money to watch, nor are you losing any money by not watching it. Therefore, you can wait until it is finished to watch it, or you could have tuned it live to see it Tuesday night.

All you're going to accomplish by complaining and belly-aching is pissing the DL.TV crew off. Either that, or they're getting a good laugh out of the lack of appreciation being shown here by some people. I personally think it's embarassing to see some of these responses.

"My time is money" my ass. If your time is so important, go do something productive with it instead of watching an IPTV show. Better yet, what are you even doing posting comments here, Mr. Executive-of-the-important-company? You don't have time for that! You need to balance your budget (read: allowance)!

Good luck with whatever the problem is, DL.TV crew, and just ignore the ingrateful little bastards spamming the comments.

You know, I download the show every week, but I never look at the comments. Now I know why.

1) Learn to spell or use your spell check software. Misspellings just make you look stupid.
2) "Free to you" means exactly that. You didn't pay for it. (Did you pay? If so, I have a bridge for sale...) If Dell did, it still doesn't entitle you to anything.
3) Why would you watch or comment if you don't like dl.tv? No one is forcing you. If there are better people doing better content, then go get that content instead!
4) Namecalling, especially when it includes obscenities, just makes you look (are we seeing a trend here?) stupid. It certainly says more about you than about them.

Pat and Robert, keep up the good work. And do us all a favor and block the ip's of the little darlings with the obscenities. We don't need that.

Have the downloads been delayed as well??

Hmmmmmmmm...

"MasterInsan0" is somewhat correct in his resoning most if not all of the people complaining about the episode being late are spoiled. But MasterInsan0 is wrong in saying that theses people are spamming the board. They're not spamming the board their just giving their opinion.

To the dude who said "my time is my money" he's 100% correct. It takes his own personal time to download and watch dl.tv. And when he does, dl.tv makes a little more sponduli (money). Becuase truthfully without the viewers dl.tv cant produce the quality content that they do.

But my feelings on this situation is that it makes for a good laugh to see all these people complain that show isn't available for download. There're acting like the show is crack cocaine. But they have every right to that. But it should be done in a professional way, which most have been, but calling norton a "lazy F*cktard" is funny but wrong. Because pat is probably as we speak working to get the ep out. The person who wrote this is a basement dwelling virgin but a funny one.

I really hope that norton, heron, chang and the gang are sitting and laughing at this incident. Becuause it's very funny.

I'm not gonna go as far as some of these people, but I would suggest that if the dl.tv folks want to keep a good sized viewership, they should put out the program in a consistent and timely manner. Tech problems happen, but this is their job. How many people would get to keep their jobs if they were constantly putting out late reports and not meeting deadlines? Every time the show isn't put up for download the next day, people are leaving, and taking your advertising dollars with them. It's eventually gonna add up.

I think they should give up trying to make a live show (nobody else does) and just manage to get it taped and released on a regular basis. If I'm watching it what do I care if it's live or not? It's hard to get home in time to see it at 4:00pm anyway.

as he mentioned in last episode - go to revision3.com and krose from tss has a show and the one of the interns (looks like) Patrick is running around the make expo in CA

How come the downloadable version has been late so much lately? It used to be up before noon the next day. Is Patric playing solitare and forgetting to start the next render? Or some other game that draws his attention away from what he is getting paid to do. All well I will get the show when it is avaliable anyway. Too good to miss.

It would be funny if they just decided to not put out this episode, or atleast delay it. With all the grief they have recieved in the last day and a half, I would applaude a slight delay in the availablity of their product. It would serve us, as a community, right.

Anyone remember when he fried that CPU on The Screen Savers? I haven't trusted him since.

Come on guys, please give us viewers a note on whats happened.

I didnt watch the live feed on thurs so i really wanna watch the ep.

GIVE US AN UPDATE! PLEASE! (not being rude or anythin) (^_^)

I remember that. That was sweet.

You know would be fun is if somewhere all the techtv shows and episidoes were put online for downloading. Even if it was just to laugh at...especially Patric.

Maybe the show would be available better if....
they did the live shows on Monday and Wednesday
and released the downloadable versions on Friday.

It would give 2-4 days (depending on which show)
to encode/render/export it and everyone might stop
b!tching and complaining.

I feel like a geek as it is downloading and watching this show. (but it's SOOO good...) Anyway, I don't want to spend more time checking online to see whether it's released for download! Live TV is mad inconvenient. And I'm not organized to pull off that whole RSS podcast shennanigan. Peace all and props to the team for a valiant effort at producing a tight show.

I love your shows. Does Tuesdays release really mean look for it Friday?
I don't mind waiting. Your shows are great! Just post a later download date than you think. Great work otherwise.

Tom

Its 2.50am on thursday morning here in Ireland and Im still waiting for Tuesdays show...

Whats happening guys ?

Ummm....Where are the downloads for episode 86?

Folks, get a grip here. The question yu really have to ask yourself is "Could I live without it?".

Personally I am feeling a little euphoric, a CD in the drive and Nero ready to burn.

Need to change the name from DL.TV to Rodney.Dangerfield.Got.More.Respect.TV

I would suggest torrents or some other P2P, but I want them to remain in business and "on the air".

Aunt Jemima rules.

"The next tech tv" this certainly isn't.

Well, they are trying to turn a profit, this is def. not a free show. Note the ad support etc. If the product is lacking then letting them know shouldnt be an issue. If there is a rare technical issue, post a news item. If the system is brokem, take the time to fix it.

Have we not rehashed this over and over again about having some patience. If your car doesn't start in the morning on the first try do you call the car dealer and complain? If so then whine away, otherwise have patience and turn the key again (meaning hit refresh on the dl.tv page) :) You might get somewhere...

Intentsly

Great show Guys! The little Chocolate bit kinda slowed the flow, but you did the best you could impromptu! :)

on another note:
-rant mode
The nicest way that there could possibly be, would be to respect others' positive contributions and ideas. "In the nicest possible way" though a respectful phrase in and of itself alludes to a form of slighting another person. Basically its a way to TRY and shut someone down and shows little respect for their contributions.
-e.o.r.

Intentsly

It would be great to have a BitTorrent download option.

It must be so dreary, to render in so many different formats, setting up all the parameters then just waiting and hoping something doesn't break or the software doesn't bug out 32 minutes into the rendering footage, or whatever. Resetting, hoping and trying again and maybe even again, long periods of walking around and coming back to check on the progress time and time again. Yuck!

I know the wide variety of formats is to get as many viewers in on it as easily as possible but I think that's a little too much to ask/provide for. I want DL.TV to concentrate on content not on how its going to be delivered.

One nice semi-squished ubiquitous AVI encode would be just fine. Then let whomever wants to play the show on specific media or mediums gather thier own rendering tools and have at it.

Maybe that would keep some of the whiners busy with rendering instead of contributing to one of the most useless comments pages I've ever come across---then again...

Perhaps if enough viewers felt the same they might consider to do fewer formats, otherwise its probably not going to change. The comments page has had some good feedback and ideas for new topics.

Unfortunately, not all of the viewers have the same amount of patience and understanding as others do. Take the good with the bad and since theres plenty of good ..its all good ;)

Intentsly

"despite clean reinstalls, system rebuilds and reinstalls... we ended up moving it all off to one of our Macs to finish the rendering while we try and figure out what changed in Windows XP."

When you need to get something important done, just use a Mac.

Good luck on the chemo-therapy Patrick, we're all pullin' for ya.

Oooo...filtering...that bad huh?

Have had one for almost four months. Love it. Better than Nano. Nano won't let me subject my friends to ten minute videos of my beloved cat!

No, MasterInsanO's time is not money. He is not losing anything while he waits for the downloads. Most of us who have REAL JOBS and live in the REAL WORLD don't "wait" for the downloads. We check periodically to see if they're there yet. If they are, we download. If not. we don't. It's like complainng the store doesn't everhave the thing you want to buy. Either decide you can wait or go elsewhere. Namecalling is never, EVER, a solution to anything.

Not complaining about the delay, as we all know stuff happens; and when Windows is concerned it happens frequently. I do have a bone to pick with the professionalism of the DL.TV team and their non-appreciation of their viewers.

I share Not In Touch with Viewers's Sentiments here. It would have been appropriate to notify the viewers of the delay as soon as they became aware of a problem. I would go further in recommending that they choose a fixed time at which downloads will be released (with enough time to render and then some) so as to squash the ambiguity and any premature whining.

I would hate for DL.TV to go the way of TechTV and the Dodo as a result of losing its viewership. If there is any hope of competing with broadcast or cable TV, improvement is needed. After all, if a game were delayed, sports fan would riot had they been confronted by black screens as opposed to an explanation for the delay. All it takes is a few bits of HTML and a moment of time.

Otherwise&.Great show guys =)

Plzz help...for the last 2 weeks when i click on the link to watch the live stream it blinks then opens Windows media player....grrrrrrrr. Seems like it started after the last Update Tuesday..

What's up with this episode? I got the H.264 version and the whole show was interlaced.

Also I don't see much need for an HD version, but a higher bit rate would be nice (I use 500kbs for 320x240). A nice 800-1000kbs would be a good improvement and would scale much nicer. I do sort of like the idea of a widescreen version 848x480, but don't care too much.

Anyway keep up the great show.

I know that the Pat and Robert love HD formats, but its truly the content that matters!
Rendered content in whatever format matters!

Pretty is "nice to have", but not needed.

I receive eWeek and PCMag emails (daily) that delineate much of the headlines covered on the show.

Its the stuff we don't hear about that rocks and the information about useful gadgets and software (QTParted). Interviews are awesome, like the one you did with Seagate. Industry people that can manage to speak to the audience at a relatively basic level totally capture the audidence.

Juicy tidbits that generate excitement about future technologies and performance gains make viewers want more!

Eliminating myths about technologies or like the pronunciation of common tech speak (Linooks).

Occasional HARDCORE explanations of how to secure your OS and home network would be sooooo beneficial to viewers.

Its the old Quake 3 vs UT99 scenario, one has lots of flashy eye candy, but, imo, poor game play, where as the other looks good enough but totally rocks in game play.

Intentsly

Just checked out the link from PC Mags daily mail, liked it, but feel is was VERY irresponsible for Heron to suggest inhaling haylon (sp) and should realize that as an "adult" who may be a role model to adolescents and immature young adults, albeit very gifted technologically. Notron, thank you for your PSA warning regarding this, but in this day and age of trip out first and think later, Heron should at least some modicom of journalistic ethics and responsibility to your viewers.

Well if its not Digital Life TV anylonger,

Why in the hell does it say DigitalLifeTV all over the headers and title bars of this website???

I bought an extended warranty on the Abit KN8 SLi Motherboard and AMD Athlon 64 3500+ cpu I just bought on the first of this month aug. 1 2006
Thanks for the great show - love watching it.
just found it and watchin live right now
im in tillamook, oregon
thanks again

Why was the screen on the Creative Zen flickering on screen? I thought that screens flickered when filmed because of the refresh rate and that lcds didn't really have refresh rates. The tv and the sandisk screens don't flicker when they are on camera, so why did the zen?

Not to complain or anything like some of the people, but just wanted to give you a heads up that the feeds on the downloads haven't been updated yet.
