Morgan. You are a ****.


I've never used that word on a newsgroup before, and almost never in the
'real' world, but if there ever was a person that the word was made for it's
you.



Why don't you take you and your fragile little ego and just **** off. Do
what you like, go take some novocaine, Quaaludes, Cerapax, morphine, dope
whatever. I hold you pretty much responsible for the demise of this once
vibrant newsgroup through your poisonous vitriol you dispense as you see
fit.


So once again if I may reiterate. On behalf of humanity I would like to say
**** OFF YOU BORING, FRAGILE EGOED ****!









snipped a very small selection of Tony's considered replies

Do read what I said. Your powers of comprehension are approaching those
of a lobotomised wood-louse.

You're now talking ********.

Again ********.

ROFL...

Any YOU talk about "poisonous vitriol" ?

At best you need counselling for your attitude problem and foul language
[1], at worst you're in serious need of psychiatric help.

[1] You might like to consider that youngsters sometimes
read this newsgroup. I trust you don't have or aspire to
have children. If you do then obviously don't care about the
model of language and social skills that you present.

Now do go away and play with your social equals where such language is
accepted and expected of you.

Whilst I am not going to take sides in this little discussion, you must've
led a very sheltered newsgroup life if Mr Morgan is the first person you
want to call a c***.

Poor chap seems to be an example of the reason why "care in the
community" doesn't work.

I can't help but wonder whether his foul language is a result of poor
parenting, or of the influence of bad company.

As I said, I don't know how things are in Britain, but most people
in the US have DVD players.

I don't know the stats, but I don't know anyone who doesn't have one
nowadays. They're about £40 ($25) in supermarkets these days, and play
everything.

Indeed, many of our video rental stores
(you have Blockbusters in Britain, too, don't you?) don't even rent
VHS tapes anymore.

Yes, plenty of BB stores, although last time (last year) I looked there
was a small section of VHS tapes. For sure DVD is the main player.

When I've had the need to distribute a video to a number of people, the
choice of medium is not as simple as you suggest. As you state, you can
buy a very inexpensive DVD player that supports most variants (DVD-R,
DVD+R etc), but a lot of people have purchased their DVD player one, two
or three years ago - when universal DVD-variant playing was very much
the exception rather than the rule. Only a couple of months ago I gave
away (what was) a very expensive LG DVD player that didn't play DVD-R or
DVD+R. And most folk take the position of "if it ain't broke, then don't
replace it" - unless of course they themselves are into home video. And
I'd estimate that four out of every five miniDV camcorder owners never
transfer their movies onto DVDs so the issue of replacing their legacy
DVD players never comes up. In fact if my memory serves me correctly,
there have been a substantial number of enquiries on this newsgroup
about transferring VHS onto DVD - and often these people have to have
the issues regarding DVD-R/DVD+R explained to them. They often don't
know what (if any) of the "home-burned" DVD media types will play on
their own DVD player - let alone friend's and relative's DVD kit.
There's a current thread of "Converting VHS to DVD" to illustrate my
point.

To illustrate the issues, a friend who's daughter was recently married
engaged a "professional" video outfit to shoot the wedding and
reception. It may be different in other locations, but this guy (who
does a lot of weddings in my area) only provides VHS in the "standard
bundle". "Extras" on DVD are charged extra, and must be ordered
specifically as either DVD-R or DVD+R.

It's an eye opener BTW, to check on what these "professional video
services" charge for weddings. I'd suggest that you use the Yellow Pages
and contact your local "Video Wedding Services", ring up and enquire
about what's on offer, and the cost. And if you're asked anything about
particular DVD variants play dumb - I'd speculate that you're quite
likely to be offered a "standard VHS" delivery package.

I wish 40 uk pounds was $25 sometimes!

Indeed... I must confess that I didn't spot it until you responded :-)

My language however foul varies only in degree to yours, and aside from one
word does not deviate from anything you'll find on television, post
watershed. Your language in the post I responded to, talked of male
genetalia and mine of female. All parenting and company being equal then
perhaps it says more about you than you think.


I am many things, though frightened of being wrong is not one of them, in
fact I relish the opportunities to learn that being wrong brings. My self
worth is not tied to the acceptance of my comments as gospel on a newsgroup.
Though I would never speculate on the origins of your problems I suspect
it's nothing to do with bad company. Perhaps you were never paid enough
attention as a child or had a father that was never satisfied with whatever
you achieved - whatever it was it's not for me to judge. Though I really
honestly believe you do need to seek help.

Tony....I do not for one minute imagine you actually Rolling on the floor
laughing. I can not imagine you even laughing.



Tony....take a look at the number of people that have pointed out your
foibles over the last few years, wake up and smell the coffee. If you can't
get the professional care in Wales I suggest you petition the WHO to donate
a professionals time, or apply for further EU aid, or go to London, please
get it sorted.


Youngsters will have to deal with people like you soon enough, lets not
shelter them eh? Let them decide what they can and can't handle. I realise
you are from another generation and that it's hard to understand, but my
language is least of their troubles/concerns. You live in a world of where
playing the spoons at the Rhyl social club passes for entertainment. The
rest of us live in the year 2005 in developed countries, where my comments
don't even register a blip on the social radar.


So I will return to my world Tony, if you promise to return to yours - fair
enough? Now...here are your spoons....and here's your music....you like Tony
Bennett don't you?, come on Tony leths not cause a kafuffle. I've got your
blanket for you. Now before I go...isth there anything else you need?

Thank's for your anwsers.
One more question, do you know if alignement can be done by
myself or it must be a repairer ?

I've sold a Sony Hi8 Camcorder (first generation of camcorder,
DCR TRV-7000E ).
The buyer tell me now that he cannot read tape that has been
recorded on others camcorders (I think 8mm) and from test tape
that professionnals use.
But it record well and read his own recorded tape. He asked
a repairer that told head are defective.

Is that possible that a camcorder that record and read very well its
own tape has defective head ?

if a camcorder cannot read tapes recorded on other camcorders is
it considered defective ?

Alignment generally requires a specially-recorded tape, and the right
instruments and tools. I think it's safe to say that if you need to ask,
you should send it out to a professional for repair.

Although not sharing your choice of words I must agree that Mr Morgan
has all but killed the uk.video.digital group.

Thank's for advice
