Diff, in your post above... (Tonight Show, Over It True HD MPEG-2 mpg, 1920x1080) "Video goes all the way through the parts with Kat on the screen (shaking hands with other guests), up to the dog driving the car"... am I missing something or what?! The (excellent!) vid I just downloaded only had the (excellent!) performance, and nothing with Kat shaking hands with the other guests, or the dog driving the car(???)????

Also, for both of those "Over It" vids, "It's interlaced, so view in VLC and choose Video > Deinterlace > Blend (or whatever method you prefer)"

I'm still learning, so the Deinterlacing thing was a new one to me. I now know what you're talking about and how to do it, but it IS only these two vids that need to be deinterlaced, right? How would one normally know that or determine that? and I assume each time you play either of these vids they'd have to be deinterlaced, right? I did a little experimenting, and I THINK I had the best results with the "Discard" deinterlacing method (in VLC) with "Blend" being the second best... I THINK! Any comments and/or additional info on this is appreciated.

And finally... once again...

THANKS A MILLION!!! I simply cannot emphasize how much I've appreciated the great, friendly, extra special help and support here!!!

Katharine shaking hands with Cos and  Chloe at the end is what diff was talking about.  I think Leno calls her Kathy there too.    The dog driving the car is Leno's production company symbol and it didn't make the cut. 

I find if I don't  have a bunch of other programs running then I can play the clips with VLC or MPC or pretty much anything and if I do then they are really choppy.  I don't see  much difference in playing with the interlace settings but you might have other results.  This computer I'm using is five years old so I'm hoping the next rig will handle them better.  They take full screen anyway so it isn't like multitasking is an option.

diff keep those modified trist files coming!  I'm going to put them in my third post as an option for VLC player people.

As CRB mentioned, after the performance, the other guests (and some other guy) come up to Kat on stage.

If you don't have any of the shaking hands, could your download have cut off early? I did a test, cut the download early, and the mpg video plays without error by VLC, MPC, and WMP. Check the file size.

For deinterlacing, whatever you like the best IS the best and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!  It's a matter of personal preference.

Everyone's cringing when they see you asking about deinterlacing, Royboy, cuz they're expecting a 6000 word post from me. They know me well...

"Discard" throws out every other horizontal line (sort of), then resizes back up to the correct size. sharper motion, less vertical resolution.

"Blend" averages fields. Motion is blurred/ghosty, but non(low)-moving parts are higher resolution.

The following site explains deinterlacing in an entertaining manner (considering the subject matter!) WARNING: If you read it, you risk future viewing enjoyment. You may find your eyes unnaturally drawn to moving edges...

hmm. I thought the dog made the cut. darn Maybe the very last frame? maybe not. I'd check but it's already so many unindexed bits on my hard drive.

oh btw, fixed Time of My Life is up!

OK, very technical question here:

WHAT did Kat say at 2:03ish & 2:11ish in the Vinman "My Funny Valentine" video??? I've listened a bunch of times, and I just can't quite make it out. Anyone???

One last (serious!) tech note: After doing some more playing around with VLC's Deinterlacing options (with the HD "Over It" vids), there's no doubt that Blend was the best option, and NOT discard.

Vinman started capping at Top24, so anything prior to that point is sourced from eMule or Torrent complete episodes that I downloaded and clipped the Kat part from.

Katharine says, "This is crazy" under her breathe as the judges are building the suspense at her her expense there.

I finally gotten MegaUpload  to cooperate and allow me to download diff's remuxed  (I've Had) The Time Of My Life and it plays great in VLC. 

Thanks and keep'em coming.

Have you tried uploading through Mediafire? IdolCraze.com cappers use that to upload their torrented AI5 episodes. Upon request, they could upload vids into 100mb chunks for easier downloading. Might be a bit tedious, but it's a whole lot easier for me to DL my requests. What do the gurus think?

yup I tried mediafire for the Roses Parade. I got quite a lot of complaints that people couldn't access it.

And the vid there is gone too. So much for permanence!

The biggest problem is the access issue. Mediafire blocks certain countries completely I think. While annoying to most people, megaupload at least gives some access to (nearly) everyone. So if I switch to mediafire, there's a good chance others would be screwed completely.

Is your problem the limited download slots for your country for megaupload? There are some workarounds that I've seen posted on the internet. 1 is a Firefox add-on (can't vouch for it however. Try at your own risk):

I added fixed Can't Help Falling in Love for you to test in my earlier post
