From the capital of culture, Liverpool! We join them as they play host to the biggest award show
on the planet. With performances from Beyonce, Pink, Duffy, The killers and Kid Rock.

This airs in crap resolution in fullscreen but with the video within in widescreen so the actual a.r
is around 1.53:1 hence the dodgy resolution used, see mtv.awards.sample.mpg in sample dir.

Hope someone can cap this off MTVNHD as it airs on that which is available in some european
countries
- 1. At NOsegmenT we do not believe in segmenting, segmenting is whereby you record a tv show and –
– press stop when the adbreak comes on, then encode that, whilst its encoding you press record –
– to record the next part of the tv show after the commercial break, once the encode for the –
– 1st part is done you upload it to an ftp even when the show is still airing and do this for –
– each segment of the show then run a script to merge the .avi’s together into 1. This often –
– results in shows going out of sync after commercial breaks, which happens quite often. Also –
– you have to predict how long each section of the show will be e.g 9mins for segment 1, 13mins –
– for segment 2 and then choose a filesize e.g 70mb for section 1 and 104mb for section 2. You –
– need to know the length beforehand in order to choose the correct filesize, otherwise you may –
– have some sections with 650 bitrate and others with 1050 which is uneven and ruins caps. Shows –
– aren’t always the same length each week and 1-off shows are impossible to predict. For these –
– reasons we do not segment as this is an evil thing, we believe in quality over speed. –
