THE VIRGINIAN -- The Claim ( 4th Season ) with William Shatner

If the video looks worse than usual, it's because

I used this lesser episode as an experiment with

different software to make the The Virginian

smaller-sized files.



That's actually harder to do on a Macintosh...

at least my Mac from 2005.



It took me over 6 hours to convert this, and

although it's still very watchable I don't like

the way it came out. The reason is because instead

of going directly from DVD+R to AVI, I went from

DVD+R to VOB to AVI.



Making a singular VOB file copy from the original

disc saved hours of use on my DVD burner that I

read the discs from. But it also lowered the quality,

so I won't be using it anymore.



Guest stars are William Shatner and Strother Martin.



That picture you see which I found in a Google search

of Shatner and Doug McClure is actually from 10 years

later from an episode of their TV series

The Barbary Coast.
