| Tried streaming both mobile files. Both failed with the error that the content was unavailable or the server was blocked or unresponsive. Tried via 3G and Wi-Fi. If I click on the direct link for the files, I can download them and watch. | |

| The 360 & 720 worked fine for me except the audio seemed like it was a few beats ahead of the video on both. I think my telephone is supposed to play video but I couldn't figure it out. It it just a regular phone, not a Blackberry or something like that. Might be due to the fact that I am still fuzzy from the surgery, etc.

| thanks for the info guys, you know i have been digging and digging to find out why and i just realized, its from the lapel mic im using, it only records in mono.. ugh...
i will have to see if there is a way i can duplicate the track for both the right and left channels, but im not sure how to do that yet. I have the next show recorded just need to work on these few issues before i start releasing more.
thanks for the feedback.

| Wow, its been a while. Awesome that were back. Hardly noticed a new episode was out buried under about 40 Mac/Apple podcast subscriptions, but I was thrilled when I saw it.

| Hi Rob
Glad to see you back and looking forward to upcoming episodes. Being a new reefer the subject matter is just what I'm looking for.
I pulled up the browser on my Bold - typed in that loooooooooong url and was asked if I wanted to view or save the episode. I chose to save and did so.
Opened up the file and it worked just fine. (used the small format)
Thought you would want to know.

| the thing about youtube is it won't allow you to save the file into a usable format for phones.
It saves it to a flu. ??? format.
youtube is just for viewing and not saving and transferring................
