I had Cannon Fodder for the Sega Mega Drive - loved that game !

Thanks for that I have had two Sony's up until now, one was purchased 18 years ago and the last one 7 years ago. It's good to know that you rate the JVC quality in comparison to the Sony you had.

Hi random - the second one you posted is the one that I found above too - looks ok and will mean I get to lose all the bloody cassettes etc !!

Cricket Quotes 1 . Rod Marsh & Ian Botham: When Botham took guard in an Ashes match, Marsh welcomed him to the wicket with the immortal words: "So how's your wife & my kids?" 2. Daryll Cullinan & Shane Warne: As Cullinan was on his way to the wicket, Warne told him he had Been waiting 2 years for another chance to humiliate him. "Looks like you spent it eating," Cullinan retorted. 3. Glenn McGrath (bowling to portly Zimbabwean chicken farmer Eddo Brandes): "Hey Eddo, why are you so F**ing Fat?" Eddo Brandes: "Because everytime I F*** your mother, she throws me a biscuit" 4. Robin Smith & Merv Hughes: During 1989 Lords Test Hughes said to Smith after he played & missed: "You can't f**king bat". Smith to Hughes after he smacked him to the boundary: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can't f**king bat & you can't f**king bowl." 5. Merv Hughes & Javed Miandad: During 1991 Adelaide Test, Javed called Merv a fat bus conductor. A Few balls later Merv dismissed Javed: "Tickets please", Merv called out As he ran past the departing batsman. 6. Merv Hughes & Viv Richards: During a test match in the West Indies, Hughes didn't say a word to Viv, but continued to stare at him after deliveries. "This is my island, My culture. Don't you be staring at me. In my culture we just bowl." Merv didn't reply, but after he dismissed him he announced to the batsman: "In my culture we just say f**k off." 7. And of course you can't forget Ian Healy's legendary comment which was picked up by the Channel 9 microphones when Arjuna Ranatunga called for a runner on a particularly hot night during a one dayer in Sydney... "You don't get a runner for being an overweight, unfit, fat c**t!!!" 8. James Ormond had just come out to bat on an ashes tour and was greeted by Mark Waugh....... MW : "F*ck me, look who it is. Mate, what are you doing out here, there's no way you're good enough to play for England" JO : "Maybe not, but at least i'm the best player in my family" 9. McGrath to Ramnaresh Sarwan: "So what does Brian Lara's d*ck taste like?" Sarwan: "I don't know. Ask your wife." McGrath (losing it): "If you ever F*&king mention my wife again, I'll F*ing rip your F*king throat out." 10. Mark Waugh standing at second slip, the new player (Adam Parore) comes to the crease playing & missing the first ball: Mark - "Ohh, I remember you from a couple years ago in Australia. You were sh*t then, you're fu*king useless now". Parore- (Turning around) "Yeah, that's me & when I was there you were going out with that old, ugly sl*t & now I hear you've married her. You dumb c*nt". 11. Yet another Australian witticism with this time porky Sri Lankan batsman Arjuna Ranatunga the victim. Shane Warne, trying to tempt the batsman out of his crease mused what it took to get the plump character to get out of his crease and drive. Wicketkeeper Ian Healy piped up, "Put a Mars Bar on a good length. That should do it." 12. Ravi shastri v/s the aussie 12th man (don't remember who, and don't want to slander anyone ): Shastri hits it to this guy and looks for a single...this guy gets The ball in and says "if you leave the crease i'll break your f***ing head" Shastri: "if you could bat as well as you can talk you wouldn't be The f***ing 12th man" 13. Malcolm Marshall was bowling to David Boon who had played and missed a couple of times. Marshall : "Now David, Are you going to get out now or am I going to have to bowl around the wicket and kill you?" 14. Fred Trueman bowling: The batsman edges and the ball goes to first slip,and right between Raman Subba Row's legs. Fred doesn't say a word. At the end of the over, Row ambles past Trueman and apologises sheepishly. "I should've kept my legs together, Fred". "So should your mother" he replied.

I haven't even looked at mini-DV yet mate ! Was trying to avoid the hassles of tapes etc hence the HDD Camcorders seemed like a good idea.

http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/259468/art...#fichetechnique Not sure what the difference is with this one .....

http://www.purelygadgets.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=1892 This one looks ok - 20gb HDD, whilst 30gb is great it's quite a lot more and this one also does SD Mem Card for photo's etc It doesn't appear to do real widescreen video tho Still it's a possibility as we don't use the camcorder an awful lot and I would prefer to spend mega bucks on a LCD tv...

I don't know what you're talking about polo

In general do you think the HDD camcorders are better than the DVD ones ? I can see that they are smaller and boast long recording times but you have to hope that the technology is up to the job. I guess it's only a development on the PC HDD's tho...

Thanks donta - food for thought there !

Also do you normally verify your burns ? I prefer to let ImgBurn verify after each burn........

Use the img Luke !

No worries

Nothing wrong with that db

Thanks for updating us as well

I noticed the other day that DVD Camcorders have come down quite a lot in price and also in size, our current Camcorder is a 7-8 year old Sony one the size of a house brick and not far off the same weight as well. The Mrs and I thought we would upgrade ours in the next week or so and I would really appreciate some recommendations from you lot ! If you have personal experience of a model please post the model details, price you paid, where you bought it from, ease of use, life of battery etc. I also saw some some HDD camcorders, not sure if they are a better option than the DVD Camcorders so will happily look at both ! Thanks

In the past I have used CD-R Media I know they stock Verbs, I usually found them slightly more expensive than SVP but when you can't get what you want from SVP these guys should be ok.

Gawdon Bennet! i' Bobby Moawer 'as polopony. There is jack Pete Tong wiv a bi' ov da old rhymin' slang eh ? OK?

He probably mistook this place for the ImgBurn support forum eh polo ?

Idiot - he should have said he had the "monthlies" instead.....

Glad that all worked out - burning 2 files at once ?? Nothing like running before you can crawl then (Joking)

Seems their media is shiter every day.....

Well I imagine the original poster was thinking it might be an error with ImgBurn......

ZX Spectrum 128k - ah the memories...... #39;(

http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=1780 The guide above is for burning DVD files direct to Dual layer media - did you follow that ? Also, that media is terrible, I am sure it's probably worked in the past for you but I would seriously questions its longetivity - if your burning dual layer don't waste your time or money on anything other than Verbatim DataLife + DL discs.
