Taping Seinfeld Everyday

This person has posted this message in 3 other newsgroups....don't fall for it. If they are such a great fan they would do it for cost of tape & shipping.

I have 4 tapes of 14/15 episodes on each. I would never part with them, unless I started taping again.

How can you possibly fit 14 or 15 episodes on a single tape? Taping SLP? I tape SP, which is the best quality, and avoid commercials. I can fit five half-hour episodes on a single tape. Frankly, I wouldn't pay anyone to send me SLP tapes. :-)

How come you can only fit five? You must be using 2-hour tapes, right?

Most people use 3-hour tapes. A single episode, without commercials, comes in at a little under 23 minutes for series 1 & 2, which means I could fit 8 episodes on one tape, because the tapes are actually a little over 3 hours. Series 3 has episodes just over 23 minutes, which means I can only fit 7 on a tape. I don't know yet about later seasons, but from next week I will be recording series 4 from Paramount and series 7 from BBC2.

Was there any point to this post?

Certainly, two-hour tapes. When you use SP. :-) LP gives you four hours, and SLP gives you six. But I always tape SP.
