Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: GUEST,Mack/Misophist Date: 29 Mar 04 - 10:23 AM The plug-in needed is not available for my platform. Too bad. It would have been nice, though, if the plug-in finder had said so, instead of just recycleing. |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: Dave Bryant Date: 29 Mar 04 - 10:51 AM My two favorite funnies about the French horn are Flanders and Swanns song to the Mozart Horn Concerto and a couple of Hofnung cartoons. |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 Mar 04 - 08:49 PM Looked interesting - unfortunately, the Super International Goat Track that leads to me meant that the performance was broken and bursty - thus losing a lot. I have previously seen other performers playing large nymbers of this 'ínstrument', but his method of 'holding' them is a little different! I suppose if my mother hadn't discouraged me from trying to collect lots of them myself when much younger, Í might have ended up like him... Robin |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 Mar 04 - 09:00 PM Super International Goat Track -- sorry that was meant to be Super Information Goat Track - under 4Kb/sec throughput is just not fast enough. Being monolingual, I missed his name. I am sure I have seen a clip of him somewhere before years ago. Robin |

Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: Cheap Tracks Date: 30 Mar 04 - 12:02 AM It's a fairly high quality video a couple minutes long - you might just need to wait a longer for the video to download - depending on your connection speed. |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 30 Mar 04 - 03:48 AM The way it talked to my machine and the s/w it loaded on demand, was as a streaming media format, and would not wait to play until it was fully downloaded, but kept playing in bursts of less than a sec with a minute or two between them - that's enough to kill any humour - I just couldn't last till the end... Would realy like to see this in a sensible fashion, will keep watching here to see if that can be achieved. Robin |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: Schantieman Date: 30 Mar 04 - 07:57 AM If you wait until the whole thing's loaded it should then play smoothly. You could turn the speakers off and/or minimize the window while it's doing that if you like. S |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 30 Mar 04 - 09:37 AM Sorry, Í cant stop it from starting - it's a streaming thread, and is not "held" on my machine, it's only just a few seconds held in the buffers - the playback starts as soon as the buffers are full - cause it AS-U-MEs that I am sitting at the end of a big fat pipe, not a tiny little dribble :-) - at about 2.5 to 3.5 Kb/s is what the stream is throttled to when it reaches me, and it plays at about 103kb/s - just no way to watch it on my machine from that source. If it finishes - to play it again it has to download it all again from the beginning - nothing is held in 'storage' anywhere saveable from, on my machine - just in the temporary internal buffers. A thorough pain... Robin |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: Dave Bryant Date: 30 Mar 04 - 09:57 AM I've managed to get it to play - quite funny - I wonder how many times he's squeezed on of his testicles by mistake ! |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: Schantieman Date: 30 Mar 04 - 11:25 AM Hard luck, Foolestroupe! Sounds like you're on the information footpath! Ouch! Dave S |
Subject: RE: BS: French Horns - Humor From: Cheap Tracks Date: 30 Mar 04 - 11:52 AM On my machine (Windows 2000) I can right-click on the box and stop/restart the playback. |
