    NAPOLEON DYNAMITE : Movie Impressions

    I liked the movie. I saw it with three of my friends, and they all hated it. It was a beautiful portrayal of just how much high school sucks. It's overdone in a way that reminds me of Dilbert - the specifics are outlandish, but some people can really relate to the themes.

    iAudio M3 or other player?

    Thanks. I'm liking the idea of the M3 more and more. I've always liked directories better than music libraries.

    iAudio M3 or other player?

    I meant, put it on random, unplug the remote, plug in headphones, and use it like I use Foobar on my computer.

    iAudio M3 or other player?

    I don't mind the idea of using the remote on the M3, though I wish I could put it on random and just plug headphones in. I don't know much about the Creative.

    iAudio M3 or other player?

    Yes, another recommend-me-a-DAP thread. I'm looking to get a hard-drive player in the next few weeks. Here's what I need, in no particular order: Good sound quality 30-40gb with lossless encoding or 40-60gb for uncompressed wav audio Simple software $400 or less I think I've narrowed it...

    Believe it or not: Motorcycle biker's 205 mph ticket

    The quarter mile time is wrong. Pro stock motorcycles do the quarter in 7.3s at 185mph. 4.4s is dragster time, past 300mph. http://www.sportrider.com/bikes/146_perf_nums/ Looks like the bike has a top speed around 170, and there are some reports online of it going 180-190. Modified, I...

    A/V replaygain

    Found it! Playlist editor -> right-click on video file -> file info -> double-click "AC3 filter" -> increase master gain. Not perfect, but it's exactly what I need. Edit: Better yet, control panel -> ac3 filter.

    A/V replaygain

    I've been using Foobar for quite a while. I decided to try Winamp again because of its video capabilities. (And I have to admit, there are a lot of things I like in Winamp 5.)

    A/V replaygain

    I have a large and growing playlist of .flac and .avi files, music and music videos. I ripped the videos myself off the DVDs. Problem is, all of the videos are much quieter than the audio files. I'm currently using Winamp 5.05 to play them. Is there a way to add replaygain to all of these files...

    Battery Pack Questions

    If 2x AAs work just fine, you could rewire your 4xAA holder to a series-parallel configuration. Same voltage as two batteries but twice the life.

    pots with built in switch?

    Not only do you need an audio taper pot, but make sure you get a dual pot. I haven't seen any of those with a switch. If you're really motivated, you could make your own - attach something to the shaft that would click a lever switch at minimum volume. I've also seen switches that attach to...

    Using comp as PSU

    A recharging circuit is definitely possible, but you'd need several poles on your power switch. In normal operation, ground is halfway between the battery voltage rails, so V+ is 6V above computer ground, and V- is 6V below. To recharge, you have to disconnect both rails from the amp, then...

    Using comp as PSU

    There have been many threads on Headwize about this, including several with single-ended Cmoy variants designed to work where V- is signal ground. Worst case, toss an 8xAA holder in the bay. It'll last for about a week and a half of constant use.

    airline adapters... i don't understand

    I have a handful of the adaptors, but I've never personally seen a dual-1/8" setup in a plane. They've all been stereo jacks or, in one instance, what looked like air hose receptacles. Or nothing.
