I had some trouble with audio and video sync problems for the New Gloucester Maine 06 East Coast Tour videos on Youtube but nothing that a 200 dollar upgrade from Sony Vegas 5 to Sony Vegas 9 proffessional couldn't solve. I have 13 videos uploaded with 12 more to go. The entire concert except for the last 2 songs by request will be posted. I do have good video for the last two songs Balaam and Brother of the Son but not very good audio at all as it is only from my audiance microphone. Even without those two songs, the concert is still over 2 and half hours long. Don speaks for longer segments betweeen the songs that I had to include as seperate videos and Too Small A Price is also split much like it was originally split when it was first released on two different records. I had to split it as it is over the 10 minute limit for youtube videos so the natural place to do it was right after Don sings "but it was still too small a price to be allowed to hear those words and to die beside the Christ". Mike Banta's guitar solo follows at the beginning of the second video for that song. There will be a couple songs on this concert that I have included, which I have never posted before since Don did not write them but liked the way they came out so they will be included as well in Here I Am To Worship and Open the Eyes of My Heart. With the new upgrade of Vegas 9, I may have to re-encode and re-post the Johnstown videos as I think the audio is sounding better now on Youtube using the new Vegas encoder and plugins for .wmv files. They should all be uploaded by Monday morning or afternoon.
I've also decided to take the plunge into High Definition cameras as I just ordered a new High Def Sony camera along with a BHPhoto kit of extra supplies for 4000 dollars. I know some people spend this kind of money on cars and such but I drive around in old beat up 20 year old GMC Jimmy and buy 4000 dollar cameras instead. It's just what I am into.
Also, I don't know how many others here are as into these videos as I am, so I will just post a link to all the videos on my video page that you can all bookmark and check from time to time instead of me posting here each and every time I make up some more videos. Also, the videos are not only for your enjoyment and ministry but mine as well. I am 42 years old now and have never been married. I don't have no girlfriends or many friends for that matter and working on the videos is something that gives me something to do that I enjoy doing. I also film stuff at my local church and am lining up some weddings to film next year. So video work is a very big part of my life. I do think it is the way that God intended it for me. If I were married, I probably wouldn't have time to work on this stuff in my off time from work or even be able to afford this expensive hobby. Others have families and all kinds of other obligations. I just do my 8 hour job at work each day and work on my computer video stuff the rest of the time. In my younger days, I use to go out all the time and go on vacations and all that but it just isn't all that fun going out and seeing things by yourself and it actually can be quite depressing sometimes. I was suppose to go out to a big motercycle Thunder in the Valley event in Johnstown yesterday and meet some friends from work there. It did not work out at all as I could not locate them and just wandered around all by myself. I didn't actually cheer up until I was able to get back to my house and back on my old computer to load some more videos from the Maine concert. I guess I am just a computer junkie these days.
I don't know if Don and Wendy will ever need any more concerts filmed but I am a ready and willing participant if they ever do and am now even in the midst of upgrading to the High Definition video cameras which are twice the resolution on all the videos I have posted on them so far. I do have many more concerts to post but won't bother you all here on this egroup about it. If you are interested, just bookmark the below link or become a subscriber to my youtube page.
