Audio Feedback for Trucker Tom

Audio Feedback for Trucker Tom

Lake County Podcast provides some feedback for Trucker Tom regarding his Podcast — TTP #174. Includes my analysis regarding codec issues for audio and video and who is pushing their own standard.

I know I make one error on this, it is Thomson SA that owns the licensing on MP3 and not Philips. Also, I think some of my son’s vocabulary rubs off on me given the number of times I say “guess what”. Gonna have to work on that.

One other point that got cut up in editing — WMV and M4V are both MPEG-4 Part 2 codecs, WMV is Microsoft’s proprietary non-standard implementation of the codec and M4V is the open standard implementation which Apple supports on the new iPod.

This starts out with a little background on my computer usage over the years as well as an update on why I haven’t had a Podcast in forever. It’s still not a very good excuse! Cheers and hopefully I’ll have more out soon.
