The Amazing Joe Saturno!

Meet Joe Saturno in Miami, FL

Happy Friday

Isaiah 56

Blessed are those who fear not God's love and honorably maintain the Sabbath.

They Buried Joe...

They buried Joe Saturno in the sand at a Florida beach. Joe posed for this picture in the 1980s. Why did those guys do that? Does the sand hold some sort of magical healing power? Ask Joe!

Florida Beaches...

Florida holds some of the finest beaches in the world. The best beaches extend down from Coacoa Beach and Cape Canaveral all the way down to Key West. Some of the coral reefs in the Miami area and further south hold some of most beautiful fish in the world. Please respect the waters

Dangerous Undertows

Again, please respect the waters, the undertow, the rip-tide and the currents. Pay homage to the dangers of swimming in all Florida waters, whether on the east or west coast. The undertows drag children down, sometimes to NEVER let them back up. Thanks to the blessings of God we present you with the truth about these dangers.

Some Great Videos

In two days the Lord blessed us. We needed some MP4 videos and we found some MP4 videos. Not only did we find something that fit right into our needs, we ended up blessed with some wonderful videos about the life of Jesus Christ.

Furthermore, the videos talk about some things in the Bible that we questioned recently. For instance, we wanted to know where in the Bible did it say that Jesus Christ was God. We wanted to know why everyone defined God as three different things, (1) the Father, (2) the Son and (3) the Holy Ghost. And the videos provided some answers to questions like those. And while we watched the presentation in real time, presentations presented by Mark Finley, we found it odd that those questions popped in our minds on the day we watched the video, prior to knowing the title of the video. Something out there wants you to know the truth, just like it wanted me to know. May God bless you and your family.

Converting MP4 To Video Formats For All VCRs

So where does one get some really cool video software? Do you know? Want some really cool CD burning software? Take a look at the following software packs...

Some great general purpose DVD / CD burning software. You need to get some other software in order to convert videos into a DVD video format. So check out the links below...
DVD Flick creates very nice videos. You can download it from the previous link or you can download it from DVDFlick at SourceForge. It was last updated in October of 2008. And what a fine product. We successfully burned a 4GB DVD movie (three videos) with this software. We just need to figure out how to make DVD movie menus and once we accomplish that, we achieved everything possible.
This software needs some extra work to get things right. The MediaCoder creates proper image files we think, but we failed to get it to properly burn the video onto the DVD. However, as newbies we make mistakes, and because we support the folks at SourceForge.net, and because most all software there comes from the open-source community, we recommend trying this software out. Just make sure you do not set the burn speeds past 6x for DVD videos and 4GB DVDs. Burning videos at 6x goes pretty quick compared to encoding from an MP4 to a DVD-VIDEO format. And it requires alot of reading, because it provides a lot of options. So we recommend this only for those that really get into burning videos.
With all of the above, we can not pass up referring (notice we spelled it properly) to the absolute BEST video viewer on planet earth. Do NOT pass up on the XulPlayer. The folks that wrote this software almost surpass ALL of the world's best programmers. Even AMD/ATI (the folks that make those wonderful video cards) fail to achieve what these folks achieved! Definitely get the XulPlayer. Spend an hour figuring out the goofy things, and you end up with videos that play flawlessly. AMD/ATI failed where these XulPlayer programmers achieved what no other video player programmer achieved.

Huhh? Two-days? What?

Download some MP4 videos. Pay no attention to the disclaimer that you need iTunes. The video player that comes with iTunes does NOT respectfully play videos, but instead sends information from your computer to someone else. We recommend uninstalling iTunes. We advise getting the XulPlayer for viewing videos.

Interesting Topics (MP4 Videos)

All of the 23 following links point to the same page. You need to scroll through that page to find the particular video. If you copy and paste the "Episode #" and replace # with the appropriate number, you can do a search on that page to get that video. We find the videos rather interesting.

As far as video recording goes, we successfully placed the first three videos upon a 4.7GB DVD-R disk. As we do this, we update the information here to keep a log and present the material in a helpful manner to those that can use such information. As each video tends to range from 700MB to 1000MB in size, we also successfully placed 4 MP4s directly upon a 4.7GB DVD-R. We failed in only one instance and because we do not know what exactly went wrong, we only guess that we set the DVD burn rate too high. We successfully burned 3 videos onto the DVD at a 6x rate and successfully tested it inside a DVD player purchased in 2000.

Now only to figure out how to configure menus and present an opening menu for the end-user to select one of the chapters (videos) on the disk.

As we work along through the DVD burning procedures we promise to keep you updated. Thank you for visiting.
