* LAResistanceMeetingLarge.mov (highlights edit from website, HQ)
* osr_18.04.07.avi ( full thing, low ish quality )
* PPV Part 3.avi (via demonoid)
* The Limitless Potential (MP3)
* Open Source Resistance/4.18.07 (video and audio)/: mp3 audio rips, and "FLV" rip of video, I think the low quality stream, via demonoid

I assume the London 07 gigs are this source? CSB + CSB Batt Box No Rolloff + Sony MZ-RH910
Just checked, yes.
I'll PM you a temporary URI for the video.

The .mov files in various sizes were added a few days later and replaced the "full meeting" streamed file. I managed to grab two different camera angles of the "meeting" prior to NIN plus the performance and that file circulates around as well, but that was also just available as an .flv. I don't believe the production masters from this performance were ever shared, if they exist.
Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure whether the FLV had multiple qualities and I'd only grabbed a LQ version. It sounds like there is no HQ version of that WITT solo in circulation.
EDIT: ffmpeg's ffprobe doesn't like the FLV, and reports the following for the OSR AVI:
Code:
Duration: 00:39:24.30, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 522 kb/s
Stream #0:0: Video: mpeg4 (Advanced Simple Profile) (XVID / 0x44495658), yuv420p, 400x240 [SAR 1:1 DAR 5:3], 354 kb/s, 30 fps, 30 tbr, 30 tbn, 30 tbc
Stream #0:1: Audio: mp3 (U[0][0][0] / 0x0055), 22050 Hz, stereo, s16p, 160 kb/s
And for the MOV (for completion's sake)
Code:
Duration: 00:09:56.70, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 1977 kb/s
Stream #0:0(eng): Video: h264 (Constrained Baseline) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p(smpte170m/smpte170m/bt709), 640x480, 1847 kb/s, 30 fps, 30 tbr, 600 tbn, 1200 tbc (default)
Stream #0:1(eng): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 44100 Hz, stereo, fltp, 127 kb/s (default)
Edit 2: OK, that FLV is toast, perhaps the torrent never completed. Remember kids, always archive your .torrent files too! Even if you use a magnet URI, you can get your client to spit out a .torrent (or it created one internally anyway). It contains a per-chunk series of data checksums that can be used to verify that the file you've got is what was shared, years into the future. And in the case of incomplete downloads, it tells you which files and what parts of those files are missing.
The OSR AVI I have *looks*, from brief visual inspection, to be lower quality than the two FLVs that are on Mediafire linked to from ninwiki. Probably a transcode rather than just a repacking (edit 3: yes. 400x240V/160kbA as above; but the FLVs are 400x300/64kb). And it's kinda odd to me that there are two similar, but not the same, FLVs linked there, one I think is truncated. But either way, they're better than what I have on this DVD-R so I'll junk it. Relying on mediafire is a bit risky though. Might be worth seeding torrents of stuff like this in perpetuity. Or dumping it on archive.org. I'll have a think.
