1. With your settings you mention that options you have listed you kept as default. What about the presets on the right side of the handbrake page? Do you select iphone/i pad touch preset or another as I don’t. see any kind of blackberry preset.

2. After you are done converting do you just used windows to drag and drop the file into your blackbery? I use blackberry desktop software 6.0.0.40 and even though it says that .M4v is a supported format for the desktop software it will not let me sync any videos that i converted with handbrake. It will show the video in the desktop spftwre but will not let me check it to sync it.

3. Most importantly even with using your encoding settings i still have audio/video sync issues. Especially the longer the video goes on the sync gets worse and worse…any suggestion on what encoding settings i would weak to eliminate the sync issues and how i would go about that.

please feel free to email me back at the email i provided in the ‘leave a reply’ mail section

Did you use the Cannon to take this picture? Kudos to you Trav, keep up the good work!

long time reader first time response. I have read your article on the cannnon camera. Congratruations you just bought a 3rd rate piece of equipment. I have a friend/co-worker that recently purchased a Nikon D-90. this camera is simply amazing. Yesterday we were out in the parking lot and he zoomed in on a F-15 fighter plane flying over head. It looked like a small spec in the sky just looking at it with the naked eye. when he photographed the plane we could make out the pilots eye color and last name on his uniform. Lieutenant Edward’s penis size was also displayed on the cameras view finder. After that we went back in to work; after a few minutes at work I heard him grumble slightly under his breath and I realized he had broken his pencil lead. No big deal, right? it was then that I noticed he had his pencil stuck in the side of that D-90 and before I knew it the pencil was sharpened to perfection. My God I’ve never seen a piece of equipment so extravagant! I hate to trample on your little heart and camera but the Cannon is simply a play doh version of the nikon. the money you wasted would have made a decent down payment on the D-90, a real camera! I simply can’t stop thinking about this Nikon my wife filed for divorce yesterday she says that I don’t pay her any attention last night I was too busy lookin at the Best buy ad to join her in a marital act. But enought about her I seen my buddy start his car with that damn camera I never seen a camera that had a keyless start feature for a Ford Can your camera do that? I don’t think so. Tell bec I said Hi!!!

That was a well thought out response. I suspected you were probably trying to make a point. For me, without inflection or having any other information about somebody posting on the Internet other than the post itself, it is kind of hard to tell whether a point is being made, or if the poster is a nut-job. In matters of politics and religion, zealots go to all sorts of extremes to try to paint their view as the best. You are clearly not a nut-job and I’m sure you represent the Republican party well.

The sad truth in politics is that voters thrive on sensationalism. Big promises and/or big scandals swing elections more than the truth. I’m sure there are exceptions where the upstanding candidate who didn’t manipulate perception actually won, but I suspect those are few and far between. No, I don’t have any hard numbers to validate this claim. I think hard numbers of this type are all but impossible to get due to the near-infinite number of factors that make or break a candidate. All I know is that many people I talk to claim to hate mud slinging, but they’ll jump ship if a big enough clod of dirt is uncovered.

Not to sound too much like Sarah Palin, but like my papaw told me once, “I don’t go to vote for a candidate as much as I go to vote against another.” If the populace at large is as much like this as I figure it is, then highlighting any bad stuff about a candidate will sway folks in the other direction quicker than nitty gritty details about the issues.

I posted that comment regarding you Mr. Travis, and I intended it to convey the ease with which a political opponent can smear and besmirch the character of another individual, as well as attempt to tar another person through “guilt by association.” Being a Republican State Delegate in my home state for the past decade, I was merely opposing Mr. Bryant’s personal smears of Dr. Rand Paul, a conservative’s conservative. Mr. Travis has an appreciation for Buffy the Vampire slayer and various bloodsucking flicks… more power to him, and Mr. Hightower is a fan of heavy metal… When one takes the comments of Mr. Travis and Mr. Hightower out of context, one can make Hightower into a raving racist, and Travis into a bloodsucking incubus.–Neither should be done, and thus my comment.

Mike is not highlighting reasons he is opposing Dr. Paul, he is attempting to portray him as a racist… an accusation which is belied by the fact that a libertarian by definition, if indeed he is one as you say he is, is in favor of the recogition and protection of the individual, against group characterizations, and thus that worldview is inconsistent with bigotry based on a milimeter’s pigmentation.

Most Sincerely,

Lycurgus

I have no idea whether or not the guy was trying to be sarcastic, ironic, sardonic, or cute. I suspect he was going for irony, but who knows. Without actually having talked to the guy, I have no idea what he thinks of me…And frankly, I don’t care.

As far as context goes, Mike is doing the same thing most political people do: He’s highlighting the reasons why he is against a candidate. Political science (as I’m sure you know) has a whole lot to do with manipulating perception.

You can help the Rand campaign if you want. You could create a site called JustPerfectForKentucky.com and extol Rand’s virtues. You could put angel wings and a halo on Rand. It would be epic. I’m sure after you did that, no one would remember Mike’s silly ol’ site.

Did it ever occur to you, that this is exactly what your “buddy Mike” is doing the whole time on his blog in regards to the Paul campaign?
I´m pretty sure the only point of the comment was to demonstrate how patently ridiculous such behavior is (and of course had nothing to do with you personally). Ever heard of sarcasm and irony?
