Re: I feel bad. Foil's final post on the dbb. edit: another flat earth conversation...
Yeah, you found it. x_x I want you to just tell me the truth. How am I trolling if the truth is all I'm asking for. You should question your beliefs and character if you're afraid of speaking the truth. I'll ask again, because you like me to repeat myself: Okay look at the eclipsed ceiling fan at a...

Re: Cassette tape to mp3. Best way to go about this?
If your back has issues, get someone to do this for you that's already setup. CVS and Walgreens can both digitize to USB drive. Not sure what limitations there are and I'm sure it's not super cheap, but it's worth checking out.

Re: Cassette tape to mp3. Best way to go about this?
Do you have any rare bootlegs or illegal recordings of broadcasts? If so, they might be worth putting on youtube if there are no other copies in existence.

Okay look at the eclipsed ceiling fan at another location/angle without turning the CD and tell me the CD looks circular. But why? the moon doesn't change facing.

It's in the book of Enoch. Nobody has ever claimed the moon looks like a disk during solar eclipses before. 1. They never talk about the moon's shape in that book. Though they talk about the phases. This could be explained by a disc with topography, which I've said before, but you forgot. 2. Dics c...

Re: Cassette tape to mp3. Best way to go about this?
S-Video only gets you around 480i or 720 × 480. With the USB you'll get to capture all the little speckles and analogue artifacts.

I've done it before in the early 2000s when you needed a whole PCI capture card. And the quality was terrible even on a "new" tape. That being said, the USB adapters make it where almost any device using any OS could capture in a much better quality than my old setup could. If you're worri...

Video might be easier than you think. At work, we've been able to utilize video ports (HDMI, VGA, DVI, coax, etc.) with USB connectors. The USB component is recognized as a webcam, so your computer doesn't require special software to record. Thus, whatever program you're accustomed to using for vide...

Thanks! I was surprised that a cassette could still sound good after all this time.
Yeah, I just used Audacity to record and exported to mp3. Then OpenShot to make into an mp4 for YouTube.

Thanks a bunch. it turned out pretty good.
I made a new channel for it:

ideally, its the tape player line out to your audio device's line in. analog mic and head-phone jacks are pre-amped assuming the devices being plugged into them are un-powered - you don't want to use those. but you can in a pinch I had to switch to powered RCA to get any signal from the player.

Cassette tape to mp3. Best way to go about this?
I have a 25 year old tape player and some a PC desktop with a 3.5mm mic jack. But I feel like this could add noise and might even lower the quality of the audio.

Re: Stopped in to see what’s up and share an idea…
Interesting scenario, but that sounds like more plot twists than an entire season of 'House of Cards'. Real-life politics, while full of surprises, usually doesn't play out like a tightly scripted political drama.
