ToastyPotato posted:I don't understand what I am seeing. 8 hours? He did a low level run, he basically beat the entire game with 1 attack, 3 magic and 1 life. It is impressive because Thunderbird takes 96 hits with 1 attack and Link can only get hit twice before dying. I know it's not much of a "speed run", but its seriously the most impressive thing i've seen done on a Nintendo game and Feasel is a champ.

I'm curious about something: On Feasel's latest "previously on Feasel's channel" video (the one titled "~~ Super You-Know-What Ball ~~ followed by You-Know-What 2: The Adventure of You-Know-What ~~ ") it shows him setting up a DVD recorder. Now I've read that SDA wants videos on DVD for submission, but seriously, aren't there about a half-gazillion more modern, affordable, and less of a giant pain in the nuts methods of capturing gameplay video and submitting it for potential archiving? What's the reasoning behind hanging on to the DVD method?

I've asked about it before and the two main answers are "it's easier for SDA" and "it's easier on my lovely computer" which both make a lot of sense.

It's easier and better, because what video capture devices support zero-latency passthrough and 224p-240p? A DVD recorder is a free upscaler, and a nice alternative to a $250+ FrameMeister when you only need upscaling. Got a friend playing PS3 in SD over S-Video (didn't know it existed) with 4-5 extra frames of lag. Would like to donate a proper device for realtime..

I was thinking about a 224p-240p dcevice that did all that, got the HDPVR2 and it's just about satisfying. (and ordering the monoprice dvi+audio to hdmi adapter soon for HDMI PS3 caps)

DVDs are really easy to use, I'm not sure where this 'pain in the nuts' 'like twin galaxies' thing comes from. You hit a button to record, play your game, and you don't need to worry about capture cards doing their job right (constant 60 fps), dropped frames, having to stream while recording, etc. DVDs are cheap, and it takes little time to delete a disc. The only annoying part is ripping the disc after you've gotten, well, a submittable run. Some people might not have their desktop machines capable of good recordings next to their TV in the living room (using a laptop to stream and chat). If you've got this set up, why spend hours dealing with recording software that might have problems doing the same thing? TheGreatGildersneeze posted:Not many, but a $20 video distribution amplifier from Radio Shack will allow you to send the signal to both a TV and a capture device with no loss in quality. The TV will have no latency. Used to do this with a Gamebridge and an HD-PVR. This is not directly related, but no $20 dist. amp that I've seen will do S-Video right. Composite, sure.

These days he still does quite a few non gaming streams and was in fact banned and then unbanned by twitch just the other day. oh yeah, he is also pretty much responsible for the current route for Majora's Mask 100% and knows more about that game than pretty much any other runner of it.

I don't know where you guys are getting the idea that SDA only accepts DVDs. They basically accept any kind of footage, as long as it's not terrible quality.

Dr. Stab, I swear I read it on their page about submissions shortly after AGDQ, but now I can't find that and it feels like one of those "but there really was a man on the wing!" things.Keyboard Kid posted:DVDs are really easy to use, I'm not sure where this 'pain in the nuts' 'like twin galaxies' thing comes from.

Some people might not have their desktop machines capable of good recordings next to their TV in the living room (using a laptop to stream and chat). Right, I get all that, and if someone already has the DVD setup rock what you've got. There's no reason to spend money to change your setup if it works. I was more curious as to the DVD requirement for submission, particularly for HD capable consoles. The PVR 2 has a built-in streaming function (haven't tried it, so I can't vouch for its reliability) and does all the encoding on the device itself so it doesn't really tax the computer (can verify, though I have it connected to a fairly beefy desktop). There's a ton of places to host video for the SDA folks to download, etc. It just seemed silly to be the only acceptable method of delivering a video in the age of broadband and reasonably priced capture devices, but if it's easier for SDA to work with, that's a decent enough reason. quote:This is not directly related, but no $20 dist. amp that I've seen will do S-Video right. Composite, sure. A quick google search for "s-video distribution amplifier" landed a Calrad 40-936B amp that will do composite and s-video (1 in 3 out) for ~$40, but that's the cheapest I saw, and the pages for the device on Tiger Direct and Amazon have the correct device name but the device's picture seems to be a model without S-Video, so I'm a bit confused.

Oh, nobody actually mails in their DVD recorded footage. You record your game on a DVD recorder, rip the DVD and then send it in via bittorrent. DVDs are only easier for SDA because their encoding program automatically rips the DVD and encodes it for you. Meaning, less of a chance that the user will mess it up.

People have sent in WMVs as their finished footage before and it's ended up on the site. DVDs are just easy and reliable, but plenty of people use all kinds of capture devices these days. HDPVR was a popular choice for HD consoles for a while. It's more a question of not loving up the deinterlacing on non-HD games and not dropping frames. As long as it's a high enough bitrate, just about any format will work. Hell, my Metal Storm run was captured in XVid because I knew how to not gently caress it up.

For HD streaming and running and I can not praise higher the Elgato HD. I find that it's leaps and bounds better than a PVR. http://www.amazon.com/Elgato-Captur...game+capture+hd Going to try and beat the Quake 4 record. I think I can get it down to at least 1:43 and maybe sub 1:40. There's is the question though, would I be put in a different category for the game because I plan on running it on the 360 instead. As far as I know there is no differences between the games. BattleTech fucked around with this message at 06:54 on Feb 10, 2013 |

PC and Console are almost always different categories if mouse control comes into play, but the PC run should be faster than the 360 run because of the load time differences, so yours would replace it anyway. Especially if you do it single segment, not sure if that's what you were planning.

It was designed with Xsplit in mind but, they recently put in their own stream software built into capture program that's a 1-click deal. That one looks like this. It can apparently record older non HD systems with the included adapter but I haven't tried that yet. As for the lag I routinely play fighters and FPS's with it on and either there is no lag or if there is, it's so small that I can't notice it. http://www.gamecapture.com/en/#!/faq https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLDKZVXQQjQ BattleTech fucked around with this message at 19:29 on Feb 10, 2013 |

So is it a given that Twitch chat has shat itself because of whatever they did to implement Turbo? Because I remember there being unlocked twitch face bugs last week before Turbo was officially announced, and now the chat servers have been screwed for days since Turbo went live.
