Up for trading ops on my new trailer

Postby DJ_Izumi » Thu Mar 06, 2003 2:42 am

I've just completed the fallowing trailer. Mixing Kanon with Kill Bill. I really like it, though it was difficult as Kanon had little real action, and Kill Bill is basicly a King Fu Sword Fightin' movie. :p

I'll trade any opionions for opinions on this trailer. Thanks kindly. :D

Oh, and in other news, my server will no longer deny access when it's overloaded. It'll just go slow as snot... ... I think that's an improvement.

I've still been trying to GET your video. Streamload is saying the fallowing:
"The file you are using to download has been accessed by this account from too many different locations. Please wait a while before trying again.

Sorry for the inconvenience. "

Ugh... stream load. |:

Contact me on AIM or something, and send it to me maybe?

Well, Farmboy, you're download works, that's the first good news. So I'll leave you a review in about 15-20mins. Simpons is still dead in the water. That Streamload stuff is horrable. I think it's sick of having a wide array of users accessing it. |:

That may be because it's YOUR account. And you we're of the first people to access it. We are in the umpteenth attemps, and Streamload is like the bouncer, saying "Nuh uh, place has had to many already."

Farmboy, Ops is up. ^_^

Simpson - AIM me or somethingggg, and send me the file. Elsewise, I can't review it.

What the holy hell Simpson...? That video is encoded horrably. It uses uncompressed audio, and the Divx encoding has only 17 I frames threw the entire file. My computer nearly choked and died trying to consume that.

I'm re-encoding it to Xvid with a few hundred more I frames and MP3 audio and dropping the resolution from 720x480 to 512x384.

And BTW, 720x480 is a D1 resolution, you should use 640x480 an SVGA resolution. D1 is ment for televisions, as TV pixils are rectangles, not squares like on a PC. :p So from now on, keep a 4:3 ratio in resolution, unless encoding for something special, like a DVD, VCD, SVCD or CVD. :p

Once I'm done transcoding it'll be smaller, and then I can actually watch it....

17 I frames, what did you encode it with? @_@

Lonely, did you view the Original Kill Bill trailer as well? :P

http://www.apple.com/trailers/miramax/kill_bill/

Because it shows you exactly what I had to work with, which isn't much. I think Trintino is just crazy.

Yeah, I did watch the original trailer while reviewing yours. I think they have a different one up though, because the one I saw is a lot longer than yours, unless you edited it down.

I actually didn't know Tarantino was doing another movie, it's been quite a while since his last which I think was 4 Rooms. Anyway, looks interesting I'll have to check it out.
