I should explain that I have been using my video card in my pc to capture the shows that I can off PBS. They come on at noon on Sundays here so I can not always watch them, this way I get to see them sooner or later. When I have 3 or 4 I convert them to DVD and look up the show number off a list I created. I then label the DVD's with just the numbers... The DVD I create is setup with chapters so I can get to any of the show via the menu. I have somewhere around 45 shows done this way. These are over the air broadcasts so the quallity is not great but I can tell Bob from Rick and the yellow part is the router table (OK they are not THAT bad...) I have an additional 24 or so show in webcast quality.

From the math you can see I have access to about 69 shows. (If you add the ones I have watched but not taped I may have seen only half the shows or less.) (I really would like to see some of the very early ones.) I will add a few more to that total if my local PBS keeps showing them and doesn't get in an endless cycle of the same series over and over.

My guess is that more then a few of us have taped shows so if you looked at what you have and Bill looks at what he has and Sandy looks at what she has we will have a lot of over lap but we also might have access to most or all of the shows. I'm not even hinting at exchanging copyrighted materials... but rather we find 10 shows you have and you look at them and take notes. I look at 10 different shows I have and take notes.... Bill looks at 10 different ones he has.... and so on.

So with this I'm off to view "Router Mitre" that came with my new toy.
