Kona video available for download

 I converted my Tivo recording to mp4 and uploaded it to a file transfer service.  The link for download is:

http://wtrns.fr/V7LNreAm30fbI7K

The file is about 1.2 GB in size.  Not quite HD quality anymore after the conversion, but still pretty good - but the HD version was 14 GB, a tad unwieldy.

The file transfer site says this will be available until 11/11.  I can always reupload, but hopefully this will allow some folks who missed the broadcast to have their own copy.  You'll need quicktime to view it.

    Thanks Ryan, can't wait to get home and take a look at it since my DVR did not grab it.

    Sweet. More video for the pain cave. Thanks Ryan!

    If someone can confirm for me that the video works after download, I'd appreciate it. I'm assuming that the Tivo feature of converting to use in an ipad would remove the tivo specific wrapper around the video file, but I never tested by going through the procedure on a 2nd machine.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Ryan,

    Downloading it in Ireland at the moment. Hopefully it will work. My only chance to ever see this race is to stay up until 2am watching it live online!

    Thanks. Works just fine on Mac with QuickTime. I'll port over to my iPad so I can watch @ work.

    @Al. File is already an MP4. I didn't have to do any conversion for iPad. Just dropped it on itunes and sync. Showed up under TV shows.

    It worked great for me. Thanks Ryan.

    Can you tell me what you used for the tivo format to MP4 conversion? I've got some old TiVo stuff I would like to rescue. When I tried this a few years ago, I always lost significant quality in the conversion.

    The Tivo Desktop Pro thingie.  Costs like $25, but good for me because it allows me to take stuff off TiVO and put it on my iPad for travel.  The initial conversion I did was to MPEG4, but it ended up at only like 600MB but with crap quality.  Amazing the difference doubling size made, even with the original being 14 GB.

    I used to convert stuff manually - strip out the tivo headers, run a converter, do this that and the other thing to get it done for free.  In my old age, and as someone who works in the computer industry - I just want my computer shit to just work at home with minimal fuss.  $25 saves a lot of hours image
