Ron and Fez 2010-05-26-R&F CF64k mp3

Ron and Fez XM/Sirius show commercial-free uncensored 64k mp3 Rip&Edit by mg56 I need to know if the buddays want me to keep upping in mono 64k or switch to something else? Here's the deal, I do from 6 to 3 in WAV, and then I can take my time encoding from quality or do a quick and dirty mono 64k encode like I do for R&F. From here on out, I'm gonna do my best to up the weekend 202 content that people want. I would really appreciate if maybe a couple of peeps can tell when there's repeats and new shows, etc - I don't want to be upping the same torrents (I know Weird Medicine will run a ton or repeats between new episodes for instance) and I'm not trying to make this a full time job. In order to save drive space and encoding time (and to make this possible) I will be doing live mp3 encoding for the weekend content. My choices are stereo 64k (muddier for talk than the R&F mono) or stereo 128k (CBR, a bit bulkier than my O&A VBR's and definitely better than any 64k). If I was to switch to 128k (I could do 96k VBR?) for R&F (they play alot of music, it would help in that area) it would be from WAV's not live (I do the whole thing WAV for those instances where O&A run over). That means it will take longer to re-encode post-recording and could slightly delay my uploads. But I'd hate to be doing weekend content in nice stereo 128k mp3's and have R&F in "good enough for talk" 64k quality. 96k VBR might be a good compromise. Decide what you want. Also should I cut O&A intro at all?

Hey MG. Do what is best for you. I like the 128 O&A and don't mind the 64 R&F, it's all good. As for the intro ... your call. I'm just happy about the content and being able to hear it over here.

Thanks as always goose. I love the O&A intro, so i'll vote for keeping it. I'd prefer 128k for R&F, but i'm totally okay with whatever works for you.
Thanks again.

thanks mg! I am happy w/ the 64k and don't want you to have to do extra work. Regarding the O&A intro, it's fine the way you've been doing it.

Whatever you decide is OK with me,after all
beggars can't be choosers.

Im just happy as shit to come here everyday and see some R&F love. Whatever you like is what I like Goose!
You're the best.

blackirishlad - yea the VBR 128k is probably overkill for the talk. I A/B'ed it with a 96K though and could tell a slight difference music-wise. I have been told several times that "the channel only streams at bla bla bla rate" but it's also a much more efficient more modern codec. The VBR mp3 files are big but are the best way to get HQ and compatibility for everyone. Also I like doing the HQ as a choice for the people seeing as it's usually not going to be the earliest O&A upload. A higher quality R&F won't be more difficult, it's just going to go up a bit later. Some time in the near future I'll be grabbing a seedbox again so I can properly seed some long-overdue archives and the shows will start seeding out much quicker too.

All Hail MG... also will be great to get some archived older shows upped. Thanks so much for the time you put into this.

do what you think is best dawg diggity. I dont mind the current setup but I do enjoy the 128k OnA.

I like the O&A intro except Ecstasy of Gold everyday.
As for quality, I'm just looking to get early ups. I do Shu for O&A which lasts me till evening when I can get your R&F. 64k is fine by me and it seems easier on you, so I like it.
