Re: BIAFF 2022
You raise some very valid points, Howard, and I agree with all you say. Meeting the filmmakers and chatting with them in person is impossible to beat, especially if you're the one that has judged and written up their wonderful film.

Re: BIAFF 2022
Awkward? No, not at all, but glad I was missed. As to BIAFF itself, full marks to the team to make it all happen over Zoom as well as in person. Simon did a grand job. I'd planned to go to the Sunday session but decided Zoom was by far the better option. So my image and sound quality is as good as Y...

Re: BIAFF 2022
Thanks for that list Dave. I see two of the 2* films are using the same picture, and Not My Girl looks wrong.
Also I see that three of the very best films are listed as unavailable. This is such a pity as I'd love to send the links onward, so might this situation change?

Re: BIAFF 2022
I too have wondered about this John - that YouTube might somehow 'crash' if too many access the same link at the same time, but I'm assured that this isn't how the technology is set up. The fact that 40 or so of us have no trouble accessing the YT link makes me say with some conviction that the prob...

Re: BIAFF 2022
A quick scan through the above posts doesn't reveal who it is that is talking over as Competition Officer now that David Newman has retired from the role. Was it announced and I missed it? I ask because a few of us judges have been banging our heads together in an effort to refine and improve the BI...

Pre amp needed to play my LPs
Hi Team, Every now and then I fancy playing one of my old LP records, but my latest Onkyo home theater amp doesn't have a moving magnet cartridge input. So I thought I'd ask you guys for advice. I'm not after anything fancy but the price range for such things is enormous, from about £15 to £1500. At...

Re: Dropping speaker levels to line levels
And a good thought on that John; thank you for all your help.
Now it looks as if I would only ever need the Amazon spkr>line level box if I wanted remote control of the head unit. Guess I'm sorted.

Re: Dropping speaker levels to line levels
It certainly does help John, and many thanks for all your care and attention to detail. An associated question. If I do feed the powered sub (with its own satellites) then of course I don't want speakers connected to the Sony MD373 amp outputs. So is it safe to just disconnect the Sony's speakers an...

Re: Dropping speaker levels to line levels
Thank you so much for your very comprehensive reply, John. Of course I'm disappointed to know that it's not simply a £5.99 eBay tin box I need, but it might help if I give you more details. I'm old fashioned enough to want to play my collection of CDs, MiniDiscs and cassettes, and I have a neat litt...

Dropping speaker levels to line levels
Hi Team,
I'm after some sort of converter box into which I can feed my amplifier's speaker cables, and have the box convert this down to line level to feed my sub woofer. Any units out there you know of?

Re: Film & Video Maker Magazine - Back Issues
I wish I'd kept the Movie Maker issues that carried my few articles in the 1980s. I think like Howard they got lost in house moves.

Re: Paul Kittel's Zoom evening
Other people are wishing they'd known about this meeting. Thing is Paul scripted, edited and produced his entire show beforehand, so presumably he has a link to it - the same link we all clicked on last night.
