  1. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. I just thought there might have been a recording date on your actual recording. Also, there might be the chance it was switched out for something else, and you might not have noticed until now (I have discovered a couple times that I did that) - in which case you could verify by simply popping your recording in and watching for the correct opening credits. Failing that, there is still a chance it didn't get into my system just because it wasn't in the schedule at any of the times of capture - an increasingly more narrow possibility as I get better data in.
  2. All you need to know for posting here is... The Ideal-Gas Equation PV = nRT http://www.mikeblaber.org/oldwine/chm1045/notes/Gases/IdealGas/Gases04.htm That should cover it.
  3. I've seen it several times while editing my video captures. Very recently. How old is that Sugarland promo of a promo/reality video anyway? LOL
  4. Yes. More to the point, a one-of-a-kind technical glitch I was unaware of, on my watch.
  5. P.S. For now I also have it under my name on the left. It's probably too small for most to notice, but easy enough to copy and paste.
  6. It's there. Nobody cares to look. There is only so much I can do. Maybe if I stand on my head and spit wooden nickels.
  7. I'm not familiar with that list you posted (theyshootpictures.com). Did they use my website, or did you manually go through and check all their entries with mine? Either way, that was a lot of work for someone...
  8. Every little bit of feedback helps. Both foreign titles. I'm not surprised. The first one, Red, is easy for me to see what happened. A matching error on my part. I do have this one in my source files, so it is easily confirmed. I don't see An Autumn Afternoon anywhere. Could you confirm the year-month this aired? Same for Once Upon a Time in America. P.S. I only came across this by chance, as I don't read all the threads. If you want me to see something, put it into here http://forums.tcm.com/topic/185669-the-when-was-the-last-time-a-movie-played-on-tcm-thread/ or here http://forums.tcm.com/topic/48504-tcm-premieres/ or PM me.
  9. Hi, I just wanted to confirm that there have been many improvements to my data over the last year. The first few years of TCM were only added into the project early last year. So those first years were completely missing before that. Also there were numerous other pre-2001 parts filled in last year, some of it provided by fellow poster @yanceycravat Now there just remains a total of about 1.5 years pre-2001 missing. That is for the whole TCM history. I am fortunate to have someone else helping now, someone else who is computer-savy, to archive the month-ending data on an ongoing basis as well as provide me a one time set of his data from this decade. This is something he happened to be doing already on his own, so only some minor adjustments on each of our ends was necessary. I appreciate his help very much. I still do the future months, normalization (data matching across different data sources), error tests, and reports. All of that now takes me about 2-3 hours a month. It is only possible through the help of these other people, chipping in as they could (now up to about 6-7 other people total), that I was able to put all this together. Yes, long live TCM.
  10. Yes, it is possibly tied up. I have it shown in Nov 1994. My listing is in the link below. Ever since they did away with this forum's signature area in all their infinite wisdom, I haven't had this prominently displayed. http://moviecollector.us/reports/TCM_SCHEDULES_SUMMARY_alpha.htm
  11. Most of your clues lead to this. Snapshot (1979) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079917/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2 Looks like a stinker, it is up on YT.
  12. Here you go. Liszt Sonnet no. 123 (I have this cued up to match the point in the movie)
  13. The weatherman Willard Scott only used a stage name, inspired by a garden gnome his next door neighbor had at his childhood home (probably TMI). Not so sure about the movie script.
  14. Never mind that message. If you want, click on the "x" at the right to make it go away. If you click on the middle of that message, where it says "click here to convert this to a link instead", then it will convert it to a link instead. It has nothing to do with whatever operating system you use. It is a standardized browser feature that (presumably) all browsers use. I use the latest version of Firefox (it works exactly the same across different operating systems). I presume Chrome isn't any different in those regards. I only switched to Linux Mint for an operating system because I got fed up with Microsoft's broken automatic updates and forced upgrades. I don't like reloading everyone's machines all the time, and Linux Mint is more laid back that way.
  15. Also make a point to hit the Enter key on your keyboard immediately after pasting the video link into this message area. That will force it to embed the video clip. That is something that takes place on your browser (at least on this forum). I think some posters inadvertently do this without thinking about it, and still don't understand how it works.
  16. I posted this addition earlier, probably should have quoted the OP.
  17. On cinnamon crumbs and how many angels you can fit onto the head of a pin, etc. I'd never do anything like that by hand either, I think it would be crazy and worthy of getting one's head examined. However I do like to solve puzzles and for me this is like solving a puzzle. So it's time for everyone to put on their thinking caps again here. update: I have modified one of my reports to consolidate some information. It now has two colums of data, "Unique features" and "Including repeats". "Unique Features" counts each movie once, per year aired. "Including repeats" counts all airing of all movies within time frame. With these two figures now side by side, you can get a pretty close idea of average percentage of repeats. (I have defined a "movie" here as being 45 minuntes or longer.) http://moviecollector.us/reports/1)unique-features_movies-only.htm
  18. Oh I've been looking on and off. This is one I have been wondering about too. To the OP: any more clues would help. I've looked into about 15 movies or so. This one intrigues me too. Once it is figured out, I want a copy!
  19. See if your Sept 2014 schedule was retrieved before Sept 29, 2014 (that is the date it was last scheduled in my records). They had the entire month to pull a switcheroo.
  20. A short is understood to be anything less than 45 min, so those would count as movies too. FWIW I don't base the durations of the features in my project on what TCM's schedule says, along with all the padding. I base it on what IMDB says the duration of each feature is. P.S. more padding might mean fewer repeats, I'm not sure at this point.
  21. I don't really have anything new to add to this. Just copying and pasting what I already have posted on my site. http://moviecollector.us/reports.htm Here is one of the first things I ever put together, back when I started posting. It is a movie-only report that counts unique movies shown per year on TCM, broken down by production decade. See for yourself, go ahead and click on this link...I dare you: http://moviecollector.us/reports/3)unique-features_movies-only.htm It just dawned on me that I don't actually have a movie-only report at this time that counts all movies, including movie repeats, per year. So you can't tell that right now from my info. But that would be easy enough to add.
  22. If mapped out, their airing timelines would probably form a pretty good monte carlo pattern rather than any kind of notable bell curve timeline, but that is just my own take on it. I have better things to do in my life than go through all of that just to find out. Yes. Mostly in determining which various and sundry movies they have shown (ie inherited, not tied up in rights issues, not explicitly mentioned in ownership, etc) actually belong in the "library" figures.
  23. My newest Premieres updates are up for this month of June http://moviecollector.us/reports/Future_Premieres.htm and the rest of my project: http://moviecollector.us/reports.htm Please note: some Shorts are likely to not be Premieres. I err on the side of caution here, opting to include as much as possible, rather than miss anything.
