Mp3 Re BAD sound...Help
CancerMan
I have downloaded some mp3's from http://www.members.home.com/phyllishennig/
and the files seem to be corrupt, they play back but they sound like Darleks
from Dr.Who or are they meant to sound like that (lol)
the two files that are affected are "The Canal" and "The stolen Postman"...
I have downloaded both files twice in case they scrambled on the way down...
anyone else suffer from this ???
and can someone point me in the direction of better copies of these and any
other Goon shows...
I am also looking for GS Scripts 8-)
Thanks in advance
CancerMan

Oh, it sounds like they've been "cooked", buddy. What you need is the steam
powered, mud-throwing program "uncook.exe".
I think I may have a copy I can email you. Let me look in my steaming bucket
of stuff....

files,
I thought it may have been caused when I streamed the files down so I
re-downloaded them as a single stream and Noo Goooood was all I heard.. I
will try to find the files elsewhere I gues
Thanks Mate

I'm sure that its caused by the corialanus effect which is not caused by
having sea creatures up your bum, but as the result of the bits crossing the
equator and lining up in the wrong direction on your disc.
Trying removing the plug from the computer and try putting it in the other
way around.
Hmm (thinks) I don't think you can put an aussie plug in the other way it's
a funny three pronged thingy.
In that case try listening whilst sitting on a revolving chair
(anticlockwise of course)

Remind me how to download MP3s from the non-existant GSD, or even how to
contact the site owner in order to buy the CDRs he is selling. I've tried both
and come up with zilcho. Is there any good links to Goon MP3s (i.e. ones that
people have actually /tried/ recently). :o)

<Grytpype> Curse, I've given you the wrong answer. But, for a small
consideration you could have this bag containing the right answer. Say £50?

No, no, no.
The Coriolanus effect is what happens to the Oozlum Bird (qv). It describes
the process of going round and round in ever-decreasing circles until you
disappear up your own backside.
The phenomenon whereby water going down the plughole in the northern
hemisphere goes anti-clockwise, but in the southern hemisphere goes
clockwise, is the Coriolis effect.

And I can thoroughly recommend the CDs that Kurt is offering. I bought a
set last year and still haven't managed to wear them out! The delivery
was very prompt and the recordings are great.
The only problem I found is that my MPTrip CD/MP3 player won't play them
because it can't understand 22KHz MP3 files, but that's hardly Kurt's
fault. If they were sampled at a higher frequency, he'd be needing to
supply them on 8 CDs!

Actually, the phenomenon whereby water going down the plughole
in the northern hemisphere goes anti-clockwise, but in the
southern hemisphere goes clockwise, is an urban legend.

Aw nuts, much more difficult to make a coriolis pun

What, even when it happens in the countryside?

It's there, but at the scale of a bathtub, the effect is so small, and
it's overwhelmed by other effects.

As can I! The way to get around this is to get hold of Winamp, an mp3 codec
and the mp3 output plugin for winamp and resample them at a higher bit rate.
Although this won't improve the quality, you can then play them on the mp3
player you have.
Steve
Chris Maddock
Which is what I have done, Using Musicmatch Jukebox to upsample to
96Kbps then downsample again to 48Kbps. Just hopping up to 48Kbps didn't
do the trick, hence the upsample and downsample.

(as I do), you can then resample them to any rate you wish and also improve
the quality as well if need be.
