Any one else interested in doing this?

That is to say, there is alot of great ideas

I didn't have that one though, it certainly beats just me trying to put a whole MLA program together

Other than the fact that I have dialup.... :-\

Maybe we could all record us saying things, and send it to someone who has an audio app, and compile it, and then stream it and/or make it available for download

I also have free nationwide long distance on my cell phone so I may be able to work up something that way also.

You could use shoutcast or icecast to run a MLA radio station.

The new version of Mpegdec can handle mp3 streaming on 68k macs and iTunes etc for PPC mp3 streaming.

I've found 22000Hz Mono 32kbps or lower is fine on a 56k dialup connection.

Another thing, which I'll maybe mention now, is that I've got the PC basically working, I think it'd be cool for me to have a video 68k talkshow, or a 68k show kindof like the screen savers, it would be very short per episode, it would be choppy and lowquality, and it wouldn't be live. It also would be in the Windows Media Video (WMV) format, so y'd need a PC, or VideoLanClient, or Windows Media Player to play it. Again, just an idea

First step is to have a prerecorded show.
Second it to have the show streamed live.
Third a live show that people can call into.

As for video maybe somewhere down the line.

Being that it is just voice we done need high quality. Low bandwidth is the key to making this work. I hope to be able to this in a 28k stream as it will make it possible to those on dial to be on the show. Plus my net connection is only a 128K ISDN so I don't have that bandwidth to work with either.

I think that streaming it is a good idea, but I personally would probably try to find a prerecorded version available to download (that's just me though).

Also the more I think about it have a person pre-record a segment and edit it in is also a good idea. Perhaps have someone do something about the history of a machine or something else that would be interesting. Kind of like Paul Harvey and his rest of the story bits.

It's ok at first, but he has those SAME stupid ads OVER AND OVER AND OVER and he's always sick and you wouldn't believe teh kinds of troubles it causes with the people on the bus...

(Let's just say that there are many people addicted to using the word idiot towards eachother)

Dunno, but it also seems as though having a MLA radio such as that, would also *VERY* take away from the MLAgazine, into which I have been putting so much blood and effort. I've gotten about five from here say that they're willing to help somehow, and only gotten anything at all from one, two *MAYBE* three people... And yet, of those three people, it would appear that more is coming, but even so, it probably isn't enough quite yet to fill a magazine. (It's not even superduper big or anything either, it's just that it has nothing in it)

Maybe an idea would be to put on the "KMLA" radio show after each edition of the MLAgazine is released (more of an incentive to do that!) and have it's content based lightly on that of the MLAgazine, but maybe 'enhanced' with actual discussion, question and answers, and voices.

*just a thought*

I have my Q800 running as the system that everyone connects to in the conference. I also have Apple's AIFF writer installed which writes any sound output to the hard drive.

The clients connect into the conference and the Q800 records the whole thing.

The client I used was my PB540 with 20MB ram and it did not miss a beat. I don't have any working 030 or lower systems systems so I am unable to test those.

I just have to get my firewall configured so I should be ready to do a test run in a day or so.

it should really be interesting to see the results

I can't do anything on a 68k mac, or with OS9 though, and even then, the 'internet' hours are limited... (I could/should try to get my AudioVision™ monitor out and the 7300 working, but other than that, it's the TiBook and the telephone line...)

Iff'n all of that is settled, so far, as to alot of the details, the next thought would be some topics and people...

IMHO, CaptainZ, ML5, and Trash80 would have alot of good stuff to say, but any of the mlaers certainly...
