Technical Info:
Audio One - This is the matrix release and is pcm. It had
to be stretched in order to sync it to the video. The first 40
seconds of this track are from the vhs audio (before
compression) to fill in the silence.

Audio Two - This is the original vhs audio and is in ac3.
I chose to do ac3 so that the video quality could remain
higher and so that I did not have to re-encode the video.

Video - Captured with an ati 8500dv.

The vhs is an unknown gen. Brian Muehlhaus had this to say
on netphoria

I have the complete Storytellers video, even though it isn't really complete.
I have been told that I have one of the lower generations around. Don't know
if that is true, but I got mine from a guy named Jonathan Hunt in 2001 or so.
If I remember correctly, some of the songs they played again aren't on the
video I have, so technically it isn't complete, but I have heard that the
complete video with every song that we have on the audio versions isn't in
any circulation. Don't know if that is true.
Brian


The chapters of this release are messed up because I encoded
the video with open gops. Some chapters start a little into
the song. It doesnt effect anything too greatly.


Credits:
This dvd was made possible thanks to many people both
directly and indirectly. I will try to thank them all now.
Brian Muehlhaus (lent me the low gen tape)
Ziggy aka William (set me up with Brian)
Dead aka Sean Bowen (the original idea for this release)
Brian Barbour (editing the pics for the menu)
Milkysunshine aka Chris (vegas coaching)
Dave Fresko and Eric Agnew
StArSeEd aka Jonathan G. Weston
Fares Halteh
And I am sure there are more that I forgot. Sorry.

enjoy

My school caps my network traffic hardcore, so I'd never be able to download this. However, if someone will B+P it for me I'd be more than willing to set up a tree/vine (depending on interest) to spread the DVDs to others who can't download them.

Anyone who reads this and has downloaded/is downloading it, please PM me if you're interested in B+Ping it for me. Thanks.

maybe someone should explain who had a hand in this tape.
i authored and capped it
brian muehlhaus lent me his tape.
brain barbour helped edit images
milkysunshine helped with vegas
dead had the idea and had something to do with the matrix
starseed, fresko, agnew, and fares all had a hand in the matrix
ziggy got me in contact with brian muehlhaus

hope that helps

jenny from the block -- you can still download it via the torrent if you are so able...I am personally still seeding so I know the torrent is still active.

Yes, i noticed but the problem is i have download/upload limitations per month and a quick trade would be better. Snail trades are a thing from the past it seems, now that we have PnP everywhere, lol!!! I´m not trading for a while now but i would like to have this piece of history in my collection. A big thank you to all envolved in the creation of this dvd

Also, hello! I've been lurking around here for the past few weeks, well, since I heard that the Smashing Pumpkins might reunite. So far,

there's only one way to pronounce siva.
That's the greatest thing I've seen all day.

Goodbye, I've to snooze.
