Anybody here watch the TV show Good Eats? It's on the Food Network.

Thanks, THAWA, for hosting the file.

I get no sound......is there a particular codec that I need?

Hmm, I encoded the audio as MP3. I wonder if maybe the "FOURCC" code or something is wrong. Is there a way you can force your player into using an MP3 codec to play the sound?

The video is DiVX ;-).

Apparently THAWA had the audio play super fast for him.

Okay, I tried encoding it differently. Give it a shot now.

No sound in quicktime, but it works perfectly in VLC player from www.videolan.org

MK

Hm. If anyone running Windows wants to try running it through VirtualDub or something to make it conform to standards better, I'd appreciate it.

This is not the discussion I'd hoped the clip would spark.

Okay, here's a version with uncompressed raw audio which should work; it's like twice as big though:

got the old one to work on my other computer.......it was still cranky...but finally got it......pretty cool info actually.....

What I got out of it is that a/w intercoolers will definitely transfer more heat out of the system.....

Yeah, it was pretty amazing how much better water does than air.

He mentions that's why we use water in our radiators. :)

I couldnt get the first one to play either, downloaded the above file at 550k per second though! What type of connection is that?

Ask THAWA.

Surpass is is hosting provider I think... 550K a second is impressive.

ya know I really couldn't tell ya, I usually get 200kbps though

I should have posted this video in the AAIC VS. AWIC thread.
It sure feels good to be right.

Now before you post, you have to read this (2 pages)

you are right ciper, water does transfer more heat than water, but lack of space makes it hard to get big power figures out of a water/air setup, even if you do increase pump,cooler, heat exchanger. it'll be good if your content with 300hp at the motor, even with 300hp with a std setup in traffic i noticed a difference in power. if i had gone bigger i wouldn't get the same sluggishness in traffic, but then i went to the TD05 and ran more boost, it would have been hopeless with this turbo.
