No. I don't know of any con that would accept that. Convert it to a real video file that meets the specs laid out in the contest rules, and you'll be fine. The contest is going to be played from a DVD; so the less fussing around with it you leave up to me, the better.

Figured I'd poke my head in :twisted:

We need comedy! And i'm not talking pathetic attempts at comedy like people who draw Gundam on cardboard boxes, or the latest generic series of Hell vids. Actual funny stuff that causes the audience to laugh so hard they miscarry. Surely there are some practitioners of the dark art of the lulz still out there? If so send any inquiries to myself or Bashar through the usual channels.

Yea - we really do need comedy. The category is pretty empty. Don't want to have to axe it.

That said, we do need entries in general - so feel free to submit anything that meets the rules if it suits your fancy.

as comedy? Are they supposed to? ... more importantly are they intended to? You can fail at comedy, but if the intent IS comedy, it's a comedy video. :lol:

Realized we're kinda short on romance too...

Also still have like 7 people that have been sitting on accounts and not uploading anything for 3+ weeks.

It says Xvid is accepted as a codec. So, is Xvid MPEG4 Acceptable?

It'll be transcoded to work on a DVD. Quality loss from such a conversion is unknown to me. Submit anything other than MPEG2 at your own risk.

Alright. I'll be uploading my videos tonight. So you don't have to worry anymore. Just remember what we talked about on AIM.

OK - 2 weeks left. Get those requests for access / uploads in. We're still doing piss-poor for romance (in terms of numbers) and comedy still needs some representation as well. (to be honest, every category except drama has less than the number of entries I want to run a balanced contest).
