Convert an FLV to MP4 Losslessly
Excellent work sir! I've been using FLVExtract to de-mux and rebuild for years and whilst it's been pretty great I've had issues with recent BBC flash rips like the T In The Park stuff - the audio was shifting out of synch. Just tri…

"Europa Geht Durch Mich" ...trying too hard boys!! ... also reminds me of this. That's the very reason it works for me - that period of Simple Minds (Sons And Fascination / Sister Feelings Call / Empires & Dance) is one of my …

Currently wondering which member of the Manic Street Preachers is the Goldfrapp fan? Have a listen to the intro of "Europa Geht Durch Mich" from the new album if you wonder why ;o) Ahem. Ha ha - just spotted this in the review of the…

Does anybody have a suggestion for a free and safe file upload site I can push my copy to? At 340mb it only took a few copies downloading before my Dropbox bandwidth exploded!

If you read back through the thread you'll get an idea on who is working on what currently. Big files, work commitments and the like mean these things aren't instant....but we usually get them sorted between us :)

I`ve got the set recorded (as best you can from live anyway) . Its rolling in at 1.4Gig , so at this time I`m re-encoding it for a practical upload size . Hopefully it`ll be put up for capturisering from the TV etc . Good work sir! =D>

I think they were canny at tailoring the set to the situation - it needed energy being where/when it was and by golly they gave it some :D

That was storming - ever since Seb joined the band is better than ever. He seems to transmit an energy when he goes for it that really lifts them all. Well paced set and when it mattered (and a good Glasto certainly does a band no harm!) they REALL…

Nice one, Carpy - if you can grab it afterwards. All depends if the full thing goes up there - you know what they're like with re-broadcast rights!

Can't grab it live but am playing with grabbing the playback of sets when put up afterwards. Got the whole Arcade Fire from last night, for example - if it's somewhere I'll grab it - that's for sure! Loving it so far. Bless her …

Will there be a DVD release of "Tales Of Us?"
The one thing, it seems, that you have to prepare yourself for as a Goldfrapp follower is a lot of loose ends. I have a horrible feeling that the live audio for Tales and the MIF video will join the ranks of things part or fully done with good inte…

Thanks for the playlist, carpy. Have you listened to it yourself, yet? Not yet - took the chance to rip & upload it whilst watching the F1 AND playing Hearthstone online against other players at the same time. What's that about Sunday b…

Are you ripping it too, HJ? I can't catch it live but am set it to pull the stream as soon as it hits 'listen again' a short time after. Have just seen the playlist and it's pretty damn amazing - so, so much good stuff on there!

The Knife support Pussy Riot at Pukkelpop in 2013 with bouncing & Goldfrapp. Er, what?
Liked the length of the thread title Carpy. A bit of dedication there. I tried to sum up the rather bizarre combination in a few less words but it really didn't do it justice! ;)

I'm sure somebody here might just rip it off the BBC website into an MP3 once it gets put up there soon after it finishes its live broadcast. You know, it might just happen ;)

Dare I book to see this at Cineworld Cheltenham after the TOU Live fiasco? The way I look at it it'll either go fine, in which case you'll be annoyed if you weren't there, or they'll have issues but even then it may not get a r…
